"A deliciously spooky pastiche of the high and low Gothic traditions and the tender heroines who live and die by them."
"New York Times Book Review
"
"Harwood, master of creeping Victorian horror, does it again. . . Twisted in every sense of the word and wonderfully atmospheric, this dark psychological tale shocks by degree until truth of a sort is revealed in a style similar to that of Joanne Harris' "Sleep, Pale Sister" and D.J. Taylor's "Kept.""
"Booklist"
"Harwood evokes Charles Palliser and Louis Bayard in his engrossing third stand-alone Victorian thriller. . . The crisp prose and twisty plot will encourage many to read this in one sitting."
"Publishers Weekly"
"With Harwood's beguiling pastiche "The Asylum," we're once again in a contemporary version of the Victorian Gothic mystery, with a lineage that stretches back to Wilkie Collins's "The Woman in White" and beyond. Though it's not a comfortable place for the beleaguered heroine, readers are guaranteed a thoroughly diverting time in Harwood's not-to-be-trusted hands."
