The book started off strong. It is the story of Mrs Wood, a spiritual medium who has taken on a student to train - Miss Finch. It dives into the tricks that mediums used to convince people they could talk to the dead. Eventually the relationship sours and ambition starts to come forward. At times the story stalled out for me so I would recommend as a vacation read.
