First of all this book is amazing on all accounts and I can’t wait to read other books from the same author.
Set in Victorian England where women are second class citizens and girls should be demure and fragile we meet a family with many secrets. Erasmus, Myrtle, Faith and Howard are shipped to the island of Vane to escape the gossip of the mainland. But there are so many unanswered questions. And Faith (a headstrong and forthright female) wants to find some answers. However in a world where girls are lesser beings it is difficult to be heard and have people to listen. A fabulous tale of the Victorian view of women and so much mystery that you will want to read the next chapter just to find out what happens next! I would also say it is about not always judging a book by its cover and not always believing what people say to you!
