Review
The same chilling brilliance of Daphne du Maurier's most unsettling short fiction - FINANCIAL TIMES
It's a rare writer who can create a world as convincingly over a few pages as in a 600-page novel; Shipstead's fluency in both forms is testament to the skill she modestly casts as a work in progress - Stephanie Merritt, GUARDIAN
Shipstead observes people beautifully - THE TIMES
Has an innate charm of its own. Beautifully realised - DAILY MAIL
Shipstead's prose is lovely. Precise, vivid, vital - DAILY EXPRESS
