 The Trouble With Alice (2011) Olivia Glazebrook "A story that really draws the reader in... Quite deliciously funny and sad." |  Ghastly Business (2011) Louise Levene "She writes with such energy and panache that I found myself screaming with laughter ... Her characters are a delight [and] she gets the period beautifully right, so that one is all the time aware of the serious intent behind all the gruesome fun." |
