About this listen

'I stayed up late, gripped. An unusual, moving read. I LOVED it!' Marian Keyes
'Haunting, tender and true - this story cast a spell on me' Kirsty Logan
'This haunting story about the power of love will give you the shivers' Best
'Wonderfully written and evocative' Woman & Home

----

A moving and gripping story about three extraordinary women from the Richard & Judy recommended bestselling author Julie Cohen.

Viola has an impossible talent. Her photographs seem to capture things invisible to the eye - only a leap of faith could mean they are real. Until one day a woman arrives in Viola's life and sees the truth - about her pictures, and about Viola.

Henriette is a celebrated spirit medium, carrying nothing but her secrets with her as she travels the country. The moment she meets Viola, a dangerous connection is sparked - but Victorian society is no place for reckless women.

Meanwhile, across the world, invisible threads join Viola and Henriette to another woman who lives in secrecy, hiding her dangerous act of rebellion in plain sight.

Faith. Courage. Love. What will they risk for freedom?

The story is beautifully written, but the beginning felt slow and a bit tiring. The ending of the two women was very moving; I loved discovering what happened to them through a newspaper article. Jonah’s ending felt a bit like a soap opera, maybe even a little predictable, but overall I really enjoyed the book and learned a lot about the period.

A slow beginning, but worth reading.

A well connected story with depth and history to it, I would have liked more development of the love story between Viola & Henrietta and less so of Henriettes origins, but overall a modest listen without any cliches and it’s own unique feels. Clearly well researched.

Oddly unique
