The wicked cometh laura carlin5/26/2023 'Historical fiction with a lesbian slant usually begs comparison with Sarah Waters, but Carlin is more than up to the task as she carefully weaves an eerie, evocative tale where no one can be trusted and everyone - even Hester herself - has secrets.' - DIVA Magazine An added bonus is that the cover of this book is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen.' - Yorkshire Post will appeal to fans of vintage gothic a la Wilkie Collins and Sarah Waters.' - BookRiot 'A captivating debut that brings the squalid and sinister Georgian London to life. It's a sterling, historical, dark, twisty novel.' - Kaite Welsh, Radio 4 Open Book 'Laura Carlin earns every single comparison to Sarah Waters she's going to get. I can't wait to see what Carlin writes next.' - Lauren James, author of The Next Together 'The darkest corners of Georgian London are gleefully drawn in this brilliant story.' - Emerald Street Spirited and highly readable.' - Irish Times 'Carlin's great at conjuring up an image of darkest 1800s London, while her female characters are both of their time, while also being witty and modern.' - Stylist and a heady romance at its heart.' - The Sunday Express
