Laura Carlin recommends
thumb
The Dazzle of the Light (2022)
Georgina Clarke
"Immersive, compelling and darkly seductive."
thumb
The Schoolhouse (2022)
Sophie Ward
"The Schoolhouse is a real 'stand-out-from-the-crowd' book, with an absorbing plot from the get-go; part detective novel, part taut, cerebral thriller . . . A masterful rendition of the tensions and realities of human resilience and emotional frailty."
thumb
The Stranding (2021)
Kate Sawyer
"Sensitive, gripping, thought-provoking and edifying, THE STRANDING is a book of our times, and reminds us that no life lives forever; how precious our moments are."
