The Shape of Darkness by Laura Purcell
4.0
To start, I fcking LOVE Ms Purcell. Gothic supernatural suspense. Perfection.
I was a little less enamoured by Bone China, and I was dubious as I started reading this one, about a silhouette cutter and her clients dying off. Enter the medium...
The thing I've loved about LP previously is that it was a whole "is it ACTUALLY supernatural?" thing, and I was concerned that she'd lost that vibe, but nope, it's back with a boom.
It was a slow start but then I was hooked.
Still not overtaken The Corset, but it's reignited my love of both LP and Gothic suspense.
