Paulson-Elis writes with poetry and compassion about the forgotten and overlooked … A brilliant, original read * Daily Mail *
Totally absorbing, this is a story that will keep you gripped through all its unexpected twists and turns – Janice Hadlow, author of The Other Bennet Sister
This book is a swoon and slither of silk with the grit of salt underneath. Mary Paulson-Ellis is a genius at peeling away the layers and slowly, skilfully putting flesh on the bones of an extraordinary, sinuous story – Sarah Hilary, author of Fragile
Superb – Wendy Holden * Daily Mail *
The territory of the dead — and the objects they leave behind — is the subject of this beautifully written, compelling contemporary gothic novel. Mary Paulson-Ellis strips back the secrets and lies hiding within one house with a deft touch – Andrew Wilson, author of I Saw Him Die
The author writes with such compassion about people and there is poetry in her prose * Prima *
A richly rewarding, gripping page-turner – Val McDermid on The Inheritance of Solomon Farthing
