 Just finished 'Victorian Psycho' and what a ride that was. Stomach churningly violent with genuinely laugh out loud sections this book was filled with female rage, intrusive thoughts that win out and bloody outcomes.

Jane Eyre meets American Psycho is such an apt comparator and I think fans of Du Maurier's gothic style and dark and disturbing characters with no real moral compass like Marta from Kate Griffin's Fyneshade will likely enjoy this one.
