Just what I wanted. A well-written, well-paced novel that kept me turning the pages and never disappointed. I know I’m late to the party, but I’m a big Kate Mosse fan now.

I very much enjoyed this gothic mystery. Grizzly murders, macabre 'stuffings', wild, stormy weather, I thought it was great. Hurtled towards a conclusion which was its only downfall for me, but I couldn't put it down and that's not happened for a long time.
