A slightly different genre for me as it had a supernatural element as well as being Victorian gothic. I found it a real page-turner towards the ending which was quite unexpected (for me). It felt historically accurate and well researched.
Moderate: Blood, Death, Death of parent, Grief, Medical trauma, Murder, Child death, Chronic illness, Medical content, and Mental illness
