Rebecca Netley recommends
The Woman in the Wallpaper (2025)
Lora Jones
"Set during the French Revolution, this sweeping historical debut is a gripping and beautifully woven tale of intrigue and darkness that is hard to put down."
The Unrecovered (2025)
Richard Strachan
"In this beautifully written and compulsive debut Strachan weaves the horrors of WW1 with the shadow of a dreadful legacy. Dark, intelligent and profoundly moving, I devoured this stunning debut in two sittings. I will be thinking about this story and its characters for some time."
Nephthys (2025)
Rachel Louise Driscoll
"A glorious tale of adventure set beneath the blazing sun of Egypt... A thoroughly enjoyable read."
