Beschreibung

From the award-winning author of Tipping the Velvet and Fingersmith, shortlisted for both the Orange and the Man Booker prize.

'Now you know why you are drawn to me - why your flesh comes creeping to mine, and what it comes for. Let it creep.'

From the dark heart of a Victorian prison, disgraced spiritualist Selina Dawes weaves an enigmatic spell. Is she a fraud, or a prodigy? By the time it all begins to matter, you'll find yourself desperately wanting to believe in magic.

'Spooky, spellbinding, exquisitely written . . . I do believe Waters is on the way to becoming a major literary star'
Val Hennessy

'Indeed, this is such a brilliant writer that her readers would believe anything she told them'
A. N. Wilson, Daily Mail

'Refined, repressed and simmering . . . a delicious tale of Victorian spiritualism'
Mel Steel, Independent on Sunday

Her next novel, Affinity, won the Somerset Maugham Award and the Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award while Fingersmith and The Night Watch were both shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and the Orange Prize.
