 Bloomsbury presents A Gathering Light by Jennifer Donnelly, read by Kate Handford.

An astounding novel about a girl's coming-of-age interwoven with a real-life murder that rocked turn-of-the-century America. WINNER OF THE CARNEGIE MEDAL 2003.

'A breathtakingly good novel' Daily Mail

When Mattie Gokey is given a bundle of letters to burn by Grace Brown, she fully intends to do so. But when Grace is found drowned the next day, Mattie finds that it is not as easy to get rid of those letters as she had thought. And, as she reads, a riveting story emerges – not only revealing Grace's secrets but also Mattie's hopes and ambitions for the future and her relationships with her friends and family.

Published to widespread acclaim this part murder-mystery and part coming-of-age story is an astounding and accomplished novel. Coming of Age Literature & Fiction

'A GATHERING LIGHT is a remarkable debut, a book that sweeps across the genre boundaries of murder, mystery, romance, and historical fiction - resulting in an original novel that is both gripping and touching.'
‘If ever a book deserved to cross over, this is it...this is a wonderfully rich, involving and beautifully written book.'
'The wonderfully confident debut by Jennifer Donnelly.'
‘Part history, part compelling murder mystery, Jennifer Donnelly's A GATHERING LIGHT brings the past to powerful and vivid life.'
The best teen read of the year? Character-rich, atmospheric coming-of-age novel (Nicolette Jones)
An exquisitely compelling book

absolutely love this book, the descriptions of characters and places takes you right there, the story is a wonderful cross over from a true story to the creative mind of Jennifer donnelly. I have read the Tea Rose too and it was not just a fluke, it is a great talent to pull a reader/listener in and take them into that world. Great narration too.
definitely worth a listen. you won't be disappointed. A +

I have read the book twice and now can listen.
