This was such a great book and the twist that was 1/3 of the way through it was surprising and amazingly unusual. Normally when that occurs, the reveal early in the book, the story tends to drag the rest of the way but that didn’t happen here. This story takes place in the late 19th century (1885) at a gothic house in rural England. My gosh, the setting was so perfect for the spooky writing and the perception of time and place was outstanding. I felt that I was in the house and the woods at times.
I liked how these two lost souls were there for each other I found each other during the darkest days and kept each other safe from further repercussions. I love gothic mysteries and although this was more on the paranormal side with a bit of romance thrown in, I really dug it. This is a thoroughly riveting gothic story and in it, we get three points of view, they were clearly defined and one point of view took the name of someone else and I didn’t find it confusing at all…that takes talent. I have this author’s 2023 release No. 23 Burlington Square and At the Stroke of Midnight on my TBR pile and I can’t wait to get to them.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the Advance Readers Copy.

I can get the ARC to this if I want it, but I’m really not into fantasy, gothic or magical books. Still, I loved her other two books. I hope you do too!
