Digs deeply into the ties of love, between both family and strangers . . . Hyde gives her characters great internal depth, and the book’s scope gives readers time to savor this memorable, moving journey.

Lucky Alan is worth reading for those stories that convey so adroitly people’s beleaguered attempts to communicate with one another.

Intriguing.

The confidence of Lethem’s narration and the clarity of his language save any of this from whimsy: that’s a tough trick to pull off, but Lethem does it over and over again. No wonder he won a MacArthur fellowship (the famous “genius grant”) a decade ago.

A powerful glimpse into where Lethem is as a writer right now.

These strange, largely wonderful short stories are yet another welcome dispatch from the freewheeling imagination of one of America’s most admired prose writers.

Black Rabbit Hall completely swept me away. Glorious, beautifully written. I absolutely loved it

Black Rabbit Hall is a seductive wonder of a novel; with echoes of Daphne du Maurier and Dodie Smith, it pulls you irresistibly into its world where nothing is quite as it first appears

Expertly crafted, dark, beautiful and utterly enthralling

Family secrets, forbidden lust, and a family of four extraordinary children who'll stick with you long after they've scattered off the page. Eve Chase kept me up with her gorgeous descriptions of a crumbling Cornwall estate and the unruly brood who meets tragedy within its walls

A stunning new writer has arrived - gripping and heart rending, this novel is full of original characters which don't let you forget them

A deliciously intriguing novel whose rich sense of time and place bear more than a few echoes of du Maurier's best

A sheer delight. It has everything: a glorious setting, characters to fall in love with, secrets galore and enough twists and turns to keep you guessing until the very last page. Wonderful

A plot so absorbing that Black Rabbit time will creep up out of the pages and envelop you completely . . . To say I loved this book would be an understatement

It's a fast-paced story of secrets, betrayal and consequence . . . we promise you'll be gripped

The perfect piece of summer escapism, gently edged with glamorous fairy dust. We loved it

A fabulous story. Masterfully realised by Chase, this is one of those books that demands complete attention and lingers in your mind for days after finishing the last page

Brilliant

Debut novelist Chase weaves together Lorna's investigations with Amber's tribulations, a tapestry embroidered with madness, a horrifying accident, and malicious lies. Compellingly readable and riddled with twists and turns worthy of Daphne du Maurier, Chase's tale will delight

Chase's heart-wrenching first novel is equal parts romance, mystery, and historical fiction

Chase deserves high marks for her atmospheric setting and vivid prose, and fans of old-fashioned gothic stories will find this a winner

An absorbing, pacy book full of secrets, lovable characters and dramatic turns, Black Rabbit Hall revolves around the lives and loyalties of four siblings caught up in a life-changing event at their family's country home in Cornwall. A fantastic debut

A beautifully written novel
