A masterful mystery for all ages

I absolutely devoured The Island at the Edge of Night! Lucy Strange has done it again, crafting a story that's both chilling and captivating. The atmosphere on the remote Scottish island is palpable - I felt like I was wrapped in the mist and the ancient call of nature, alongside Faye.

The mystery at the heart of the story is deliciously dark and intriguing. I was hooked from the very first page, desperate to uncover the secrets hidden within the story. The characters are complex and believable, and I found myself rooting for Faye and her friends as they navigated the treacherous world she found herself in.

I particularly loved the way the author weaves together elements of the supernatural with the gritty reality of life in the 1930s. If you enjoy a good mystery with a touch of the gothic, this book is an absolute must-read.

Real creepy atmosphere and twists and turns

I don't read a lot of gothic horror but this was absolutely fantastic. The descriptions were brilliant. Fay was a great character. I really enjoyed listening to it and never once wished it to end.
