Francesca Haig recommends
The Nightingale's Castle (2024)
Sonia Velton
"The Nightingale's Castle is as intricately and deftly woven as the lace made by the girls of the castle. It's a moving, fascinating and haunting tale, immaculately researched. A mesmerising combination of gothic horror and elegant restraint."
