'Evocative, wry, charming and utterly joyous' Hazel Prior, bestselling author of Away with the Penguins
A lost journal. A long-buried secret. A story waiting to be told.
Cleo Finch has loved gothic literature all her life. She’s spent years researching and writing her thesis on the works of one gothic novelist in particular, Orlando Browne, and is determined to prove that Browne was the pen name of a female author, Alys Weston.
But as her best friend Tris never fails to remind her, she still hasn’t succeeded in finding concrete evidence that proves this to be true.
That is, until Cleo’s Uncle Ambrose gifts her Alys’ very own diary.
As Cleo begins deciphering Alys' daily entries, she finds herself utterly absorbed by Alys' vivid descriptions - particularly of the rakish Lord Rayven - and the challenges Alys faced trying to keep Orlando’s true identity a secret.
And so, newly inspired, Cleo sets aside her thesis to pen a gothic novel of her own . . .
