Review #417: House of Shadows by Nicola Cornick



My rating: 4 of 5 stars


“A house with old furniture has no need of ghosts to be haunted.”


----Hope Mirrlees



Nicola Cornick, an English international best-selling writer, pens her new deeply touching yet intriguing historical fiction, House of Shadows, that unfolds two stories layered over one another centered around an old house with three women from three different timeline connected by an antique mirror, an old diary and with their same-pattern of love stories. This is the perfect kind of tale which demands a readers to get lost into its elegance, beauty and evocative history on a sunny afternoon.
