A tea leaf reader in nineteenth-century England falls in love—and in danger—with a reclusive alchemist in an enthralling historical fantasy by the author of Salt & Broom and Grimm Curiosities.
Cornwall, 1854. The people of Roche have always whispered about the recluse in the black granite tower that looms above the moorland. But one young woman is driven to discover the truth behind the old tales.
Her life overshadowed by family tragedy, Mina Penrose escapes her lonely days by working at The Magpie, a cozy tearoom on the village’s edge. Lately she’s been seeing shapes in the sodden leaves that hint at the future. After one such omen, Mina stumbles upon a murdered man on the heath. Villagers immediately suspect Harker Tregarrick, a living, breathing mystery who never ventures beyond the bounds of his centuries-old estate.
Until the day after the murder, when the handsome and compelling recluse visits The Magpie…leading to a meeting that will change both their fates. Captivated by a man around whom danger and rumors of death swirl, Mina has never felt more alive. Can she uncover Harker’s heartbreaking history—and the truth about the murder—before tragedy strikes again?

“Fisher deftly combines adventure and romance in this atmospheric historical fantasy.”—Booklist
!didn’t know we needed it! cozy retelling of the classic Dracula. Layered within however, is an absolute banger of a remix on the series which profoundly changed my generation, Twilight. I enjoyed the audiobook. It was good fun. I have only two complaints. The first is the ending. Too neat and the male lead entering into new places of wonder quite literally. Wink wink. The second is the narrator of the male POV. Should have kept the female narrator throughout. The shift was so jarring with the breathy, broody male blowing my hair around and reeking of Ross Poldark. Again, it was fun. Recommend.
A cozy mashup of two classics (Spoiler)
