The Gone and the Forgotten

Coming June 16, 2022

This impressive debut builds superbly, with plenty of twists and turns.
—Woman & Home, November’s Book Club Choice

Colourful Victorian streetlife meets gaslit bride.
—Karen Robinson, The Sunday Times Crime Club

Compelling in its portrait of Susannah as she tries to free herself.
—Nick Rennison, The Sunday Times pick of the best historical fiction

I’d be amazed if it isn’t dominating the shortlists come next year’s award season.
