Tim Leach recommends
Spitting Gold (2024)
Carmella Lowkis
"Set in rain-soaked 19th century Paris, Spitting Gold is a tale of two sisters and a perfectly paced gothic heist. This world of spiritualist hucksters and scheming aristocrats is brilliantly evoked, and it's a story told with real heart."
Cecily (2021)
Annie Garthwaite
"An intimate, vivid, and compulsively page turning retelling of the Wars of the Roses. At the centre of it all is Cecily herself - ferocious to her enemies, loving to her family, both cannily pragmatic and willing to take the greatest of risks for the greatest of prizes."
The Glass Woman (2019)
Caroline Lea
"Like a ghost story told around a winter fire, The Glass Woman is taut, haunting, and broodingly tense. Playing out against the harsh backdrop of the Icelandic winter, it kept me hooked all the way to the end."
