Praise for Alix Nathan: 'The best kind of historical fiction ... She is an original, with a virtuoso touch.' -- Hilary Mantel This is an extraordinary, quite brilliant book * CJ Sansom * A powerful and unsettling novel, both fascinating and infinitely strange -- Andrew Taylor Unusual, gripping and emotionally complex - I loved this book. -- Sally Magnusson, author of The Sealwoman's Gift Original and beautifully written, this is a meaty, gripping novel of obsession gone sour. * The Daily Mail *
