Every heart holds a secret...

But some secrets are better left buried.

When seventeen-year old Phoebe Turner visits Wilton's Music Hall to watch her Aunt Cissy performing on stage, she risks the wrath of her mother Maud who marches with the Hallelujah Army, campaigning for all London theatres to close. While there, Phoebe is drawn to a stranger, the enigmatic Nathaniel Samuels.

When offered the position of companion to Nathaniel's reclusive wife, Phoebe leaves her life in London's East End for Dinwood Court in Herefordshire.

But Phoebe is soon to discover that Dinwood Court may well be haunted - and holds the darkest of truths...

In her gloriously gothic debut, Essie Fox weaves a spellbinding tale of guilt and deception, regret and lost love.

批評家のレビュー

Essie Fox transports us to the Victorian squalor of London's East End for a tale of illegitimacy, incest and theatricality with so many twists that you'll want to read it in one sitting
Vividly compelling, dark and dazzling (Katherine Webb)
I am currently reading THE SOMNAMBULIST, a novel which I am enjoying so much that I was up at six this morning to relish it in the peace of my still sleeping household. It has taken me to new worlds, is riven with suspense, has made my imagination wander, and my fingers itch to turn the last page (Jojo Moyes)
Paints a vivid picture of Victorian times
A tale of complicated thespian lives, old secrets and many a twist and turn...an absorbing read, well worth recommending
This is a gutsy page-turning novel with a delightful heroine... larger than life Dickensian characters and generous supply of plot twists and turns. But it is no pastiche. It is an affectionate and knowledgeable homage to the genre and a thumping good read
A gloriously gothic tale of guilt and deception, regret and lost love
This wonderful debut novel ... is well written with lively and believable characters ... I found this book difficult to put down and look forward to reading more from this very promising author
