🕵️ Mystery
The Thirteenth Tale
📖 Synopsis
A dying writer finally reveals her true story to a young biographer. A gothic homage to the Brontë sisters.
✍️ ChatZona's review
A Gothic homage to the Brontë sisters that works better as atmosphere than as mystery novel. Setterfield builds a setting of books, fireplaces and secrets with considerable craft, and the dying writer narrating her true story has a seductive voice. The central mystery resolves less surprisingly than promised, but the journey there is worth it for readers who enjoy atmospheric narrative and stories within stories.
