Napoleon's Mirage (2024)
Michelle Cameron
"Meticulous research, rich characterization, and a powerful narrative make this gripping saga of Napoleon's foray into Egypt a joy to read. Michelle Cameron is a gifted storyteller and stylist, expertly crafting a novel that allows the reader to disappear into a fully imagined past, firmly grounded in history but never didactic. An absolute triumph!"
thumb
The Bequest (2022)
Joanna Margaret
"Intricately plotted, exquisitely written, and brimming with atmosphere, The Bequest is a brilliant debut, as smart as it is compelling."
thumb
The House in the Orchard (2022)
Elizabeth Brooks
"Elizabeth Brooks has penned an inspired take on the Gothic novel that would impress Daphne du Maurier and Emily Bronte. Alluring, atmospheric, and deliciously creepy, The House in the Orchard is a wickedly entertaining read."
