pickA gripping Victorian Gothic - an evil husband, a wronged woman, a noble suitor. Asylums, locked rooms and a race across London. I enjoyed this mammoth book immensely, although, as a modern reader, I much preferred the forthright and practical character of Marian to the simpering and childlike Laura.

jillrhudy I think everyone, including the author, likes Marian better! 4y
veritysalter @jillrhudy I was worried I wasn‘t being romantic enough. I know Laura fulfilled the Victorian notion of an ideal woman/wife, but she was so dull. #FeistyWomenForTheWin 4y
