A tightly written, original retelling of a classical myth, this novella kept me hooked all the way to the end. The writing is elegant and effective, and the story is very compelling, full of chilling, unpredictable turns. I highly recommend it, and look forward to reading more books by this author.

Lush yet eerie, a combination you don't get to enjoy often. As a lover of transformed myths and fairy tales, I look forward to reading more of Imogen Howson's work.
