Wonderfully unwoven tapestry of a tale. Flavored with plot twists, generational trauma, and a mystery left unsolved until the very end, The Daughters of Foxcote Manor is impossible to put down.

Erm wow I loved this! Just so good, I loved the characters, the mystery, and they way it all came together in the end was just brilliant. It seems I just really like reading about unstable mothers and their tragic families
