For fans of Barbara Erskine and Kate Morton comes an unforgettable
novel about three women and the power one lie can have over
history. London, 1662: There was something the Winter Queen needed
to tell him. She fought for the strength to speak. 'The crystal
mirror is a danger. It must be destroyed - ' He replied instantly.
'It will'. Ashdown, Oxfordshire, present day: Ben Ansell is
researching his family tree when he disappears. As his sister Holly
begins a desperate search, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to
an ornate antique mirror and to the diary of Lavinia, a 19th
century courtesan who was living at Ashdown House when it burned to
the ground over 200 years ago. Intrigued, and determined to find
out more about the tragedy at Ashdown, Holly's only hope is that
uncovering the truth about the past will lead her to Ben.

twists and spooky turns. Brilliantly written, unguessable and
page-turning.' 'Spellbinding, with a narrative that left me
bewitched. Not to be missed!' 'A fabulous read. I was completely
enthralled, and kept guessing throughout.'
