All Time Favourites List! 🏆

A gothic, witchy, mysterious, atmospheric tale that had me addicted to every word and not wanting the story to end.

This was absolute perfection! This debut novel included every single element I love in my books. Deeply buried family secrets. An old, secluded, crumbling cottage in the countryside surrounded by forest. Multiple timelines. Endearing, believable and root worthy female main characters. Hidden locks, doors and diaries. Entrancing tension and foreboding atmosphere. The healing power of nature. Pregnancy/motherhood theme.

Bottom line � I adored every single word of this novel! It was an exquisitely written mystery with a brilliantly woven, slow burn, tension filled plot. I highly recommend!!

Thank you to my lovely local library for the loan!
