The Nightingale's Castle (2024)
Sonia Velton
"[An] incredible story. Sonia Velton's writing and characterisation are masterful."
The Hidden (2019)
Mary Chamberlain
"Beautiful, shocking and utterly absorbing, The Hidden casts light on an episode in our wartime history which is so rarely told... Mary Chamberlain writes beautifully about war, love and survival, brilliantly portraying the struggles of individuals, especially women, forced into desperate acts in order to endure."
