Recenzii

"This briskly enjoyable novel of gypsy fortune-telling and high-society crimes in 1860s London has all the intrigue of its neo-Victorian rivals... With her salty cast of vagabonds and villains, Stockbridge stirs the pot with glee" Independent "A good 'petticoat drama' read for fans of Sarah Waters" We Love this Book "A vividly gripping mystery story that dances through the unexpected dangers of 1860s London" Easy Living "Stockbridge has talent... Full of double dealing and repressed female sexuality, Cross My Palm takes us from the drawing rooms of Cavendish Square to the thieves and prostitutes of Haymarket - and finally to the gypsy encampment on Dulwich Common" Evening Standard "This is a witty, and mysterious second novel from multi-talented actress, model and author Stockbridge... Impressive" Diva Magazine
