Beschreibung

1914. Clara Waterfield , twenty years old and newly bereaved, is summoned to a large stone house in rural Gloucestershire. Her task: to fill a glasshouse with exotic plants from Kew Gardens, to create a private paradise for the owner of Shadowbrook.

But on arrival, she hears dark rumours. Flowers are dying in their vases, curious marks appear on doors - and the maids seem nervous, afraid. Who lived at Shadowbrook, before? And who is living there now?

`House of Glass may start as a ghost story but it turns into something much more profound: a lyrical examination of how women carve lives out of a male-dominated society even with a looming war that will change everyone. I was suprised and moved' Tracy Chevalier

`It is beautiful and mesmerising; like entering a dream. I was spellbound and couldn't do anything else but keep reading' - Jill Dawson

'Menacing characters, dark secrets... A hothouse of a novel... ' - Caroline Sanderson, The Bookseller
