The Cleaner of Chartres by Salley Vickers

The Cleaner of Chartres by Salley Vickers

There is something special about the ancient cathedral of Chartres, with its mismatched spires, astonishing stained glass and strange labyrinth. And there is something special too about Agnes Morel, the mysterious woman who is to be found cleaning it each morning.

Subtle and utterly joyous..a contemporary moral and psychological drama every bit as absorbing as Miss Garnet's Angel * Sunday Times *
The Cleaner of Chartres is a return to form * Sunday Express *
The Cleaner of Chartres touches lightly on the seedy side of human nature * Observer *
A magical and at times sinister story about love, loss, secrets and forgiveness...with Chocolat-type charm * Scotland on Sunday *
If you're looking for a book to take you by surprise, Salley Vickers' latest is the perfect choice * Psychologies *

Salley Vickers is the author of many acclaimed novels including the best-selling Miss Garnet's Angel, Mr Golightly's Holiday, The Other Side of You and The Cleaner of Chartres (Viking 2012) and two short story collections, the latest The Boy Who Could See Death (Viking 2015).
