The Turn of Midnight by Minette Walters
The exquisitely wrought and thrillingly gripping second novel set during the time of the Black Death from Minette Walters.
Wonderful and sweeping, with a fabulous sense of place and history * Kate Mosse on The Last Hours *
An enthralling account of a calamitous time, and above all a wonderful testimony to the strength of the human spiritI was caught from the first page. * Julian Fellowes on The Last Hours *
Atmosphere, imagination and narrative power of which few other writers are capable * The Times *
A vividly-wrought and powerful story. With The Last Hours, Minette Walters has brought her impressive skill as a writer of psychological crime to create a dark and gripping depiction of Medieval England in the jaws of the Black Death. * Elizabeth Fremantle on The Last Hours *
Walters's skill and subtlety in portraying the suffering and disarray of a feudal society in which disease rampages and God has seemingly gone mad is masterly. And, as with her bestselling suspense novels, the psychological drama is gripping. * Elizabeth Buchan, Daily Mail, praise for The Last Hours *
Stunning * Daily Express *
A must-read... eloquent, absorbing, absolutely fascinating and thoroughly enjoyable. * LoveReading *
a mammoth tale * BBC History Magazine *
