‘I can tell you that it is a ride very much worth taking. One full of the Gothic and the glamour, brimming with historically bad heroines and women with warped predilections, but there is one thing I have failed to mention so far: the yellowjackets. Their buzzing echoes eerily throughout the pages of Plain Bad Heroines, the consequences of their repeated stings are devastating and reverberate across the centuries’ DIVA MAGAZINE

‘Immensely enjoyable’ SCOTSMAN
‘A labyrinthine tale in every way, slowly unfolding horror after horror with a sense of creeping dread and inevitability invading every page’ Palatinate
