Recent Reads: Season of Darkness by Cora Harrison

My review: 🌟🌟🌟

Season of Darkness by Cora Harrison is a murder mystery, with Charles Dickens and Wilkie Collins as the investigators.

These two authors get sucked into the crime as Dickens recognises the woman who is murdered as one of the young women who went to Urania Cottage, which was a home where women could improve themselves, and then emigrate to Australia, America, or South Africa, to make better lives for themselves.

I found the characters to be quite good, but I found them to be a little obsessive over the one idea of who committed the crime, which annoyed me, but being flawed is human.

Cora Harrison has written quite a few historical crime and historical romance novels, so if you like Season of Darkness you should probably have a look at her other books.

Season of Darkness was published on 1st July 2019,  and is available to buy on Amazon  and on Waterstones.  I've found a link to where you can search for local bookshops, including independent!

I was given this book for free in return for an unbiased review, so my thanks to NetGalley and to Severn House Publishers (the publishers) for this book.
