The Shape of Darkness by Laura Purcell
5.0
This book was gifted by the publisher in exchange for an honest review
This is truly one of the best things Laura Purcell, our Gothic Victorian Queen, has written thus far (alongside The Secret Companions). Incredibly dark and oppressive, fuelled by grief and ghosts, Purcell delivers a wonderfully supernatural storyline about a young spirit medium and silhouette artist. Without wanting to reveal any spoilers, Purcell maintains an aura of intrigue throughout this tale that'll keep you turning those pages and the last 20% of this book... well, let's just say you won't rest until you've reached the end.
