She is one of my favourite authors with a large back catalogue that fluctuates between tales with a magical or fey slant and stories of American life. This is the first one she has set in London. It centres around a corridor in a hotel in Knightsbridge which is reputed to be haunted – but this is not a ghost story, it is a tale of a tormented soul, of love and loss and sadness and it is stunning.
Comparison: Sadie Jones, Patricia Schonstein, Joanne Harris.
