Jane believes in keeping her promises.
But a deathbed vow in 1569 sets her on a twisting path of joy and deceit that takes her from the dark secrets of Holmwood House in York to the sign of the golden lily in London’s Mincing Lane. Getting what you wish for, Jane discovers, comes at a price. For the child that she longs for, the child she promises to love and keep safe, turns out to have a darker soul than she could ever have imagined.
Over four centuries later, Roz remembers nothing of the fire that killed her family, or of the brother who started it. A beautiful Tudor necklace found in the newly restored Holmwood House triggers disturbing memories of the past – but the past Roz remembers is not her own …
‘With each successive novel, Pamela Hartshorne’s writing goes from strength to strength. There is no doubt that she has captured the idea of the time slip/dual narrative historical novel to perfection and she continues to enthral, beguile and entertain’ - JaffaReadsToo
‘With richly evocative depictions of Jane's life in the sixteenth century, I loved how the historical period was brought to life. Coupled with the creepy atmosphere of the present Holmwood House and some dark, vengeful characters haunting both Jane and Roz, The Edge Of Dark is a deliciously compulsive read - Cosybooks.com
