Description
A deliciously Gothic and atmospheric novel, The Bone Flower is a deeply human story about guilt, betrayal and the cruelty of social expectations. On a November evening in Victorian London, Edward Monteith stokes the fire at his local gentlemen's club, listening to stories of supernatural experiences and theories of life after death. His curiosity leads him to a séance, where he falls under the spell of a beautiful flower seller. But Victorian society does not look kindly on love between a gentleman of means and a Romani girl, and when he faces being cut off by his family, Edward makes a decision with horrifying consequences. Two years later, Edward is married and anticipating the birth of his first child, in a beautiful house lined with orange blossom trees. The boundary between the living and the dead begins to thin, and the wrongs of the past are not so easily forgotten. This dark, uncanny love story explores the complexities of human relationships and the devastating consequences of social expectations.
