The Shadow Year Bewertungen

Hannah Richell instantly draws you into her story: powerful, real and memorable * Elizabeth Noble, author of Things I Want My Daugher to Know *
An engrossing and clever tale -- Anita Shreve
The past and present storylines are deftly woven and equally engrossing, while the atmosphere of unease builds and builds, and lingers way beyond the last page. Brilliant -- Emylia Hall, author of The Book of Summers
A compelling debut tale of infidelity, betrayal and tragedy that will have you turning the pages until the early hours * GRAZIA *
The writing is so vivid that we became completely lost in the Tide family's world * GOOD HOUSEKEEPING on Secrets of the Tides *
A compelling tale of grief and forgiveness * WOMAN AND HOME *
[An] ambitious, wide-ranging family saga * DAILY MAIL *
I held my breath from the first page to the very end. SECRETS OF THE TIDES is a masterpiece - a rich and intricate exploration of a family torn apart by tragedy. Du Maurier, Pilcher, Shreve - it is easy to make comparisons, yet it would be wrong to liken Hannah Richell to any other, her voice is so strong * Veronica Henry *
Assuredly written and impeccably structured, it excavates the emotional layers of family drama when something goes terribly wrong - think Jodi Picoult without the formulaic writing...Moving and darkly suspenseful * SYDNEY MORNING HERALD *
Not only does THE SHADOW YEAR have at its heart a clever surprising story, but it's also beautifully written. Author Hannah Richell paints a vivd, colourful picture of of the Peak District through her writing, but its the small details I loved most ... This powerful beautiful book will keep you guessing to the end. A must read! * FABULOUS / SUN ON SUNDAY *
