The Death of Jane Lawrence

This was a wonderfully gothic story. It has unexpected love, ghosts, magic, and madness.

Jane Shoringfield has decided that she will marry Augustine Lawrence as a marriage of convenience for them both. He finally agrees with the one thing that she must never do. She must never spend the night at his home Lindridge Hall. Of course, you know that that doesn't last long and of course, there are ghosts of all sorts and weird behaviors of her new husband and the staff.

I couldn't put the book down but occasionally could not read it at night. Just enough spookiness combined with logical explanations and a touch of the arcane magic to make it the perfect book for me without scaring me too much. No gore if don't count surgeries explained a bit too well.

I look forward to more of this author's work.

Thank you to the publisher for sending me an advanced copy of this book for an honest review. I will be buying copies of this for friends.
