'Vivid, atmospheric and utterly compelling. The Bone Flower satisfies all the demands of a classic ghost story but also pushes it in unusual ways, showing how misogyny and colonialism lurk in the shadows.

'An exquisite, a remarkable Gothic... So entirely atmospheric and eerie that I'm convinced the writer is Poe reawakened' Caroline Smailes, author of The Drowning of Arthur Braxton
