Critics Review

“Yesternight is a story that is unassumingly haunting.”

“Yesternight is a story that is unassumingly haunting.” – Kirkus Reviews “A haunting, unforgettable read.” – Simone St James author of Lost Among the Living “Atmospheric and spooky with real gothic flair, the latest from Winters (The Uninvited) introduces a realistically flawed heroine stifled by the conventions of her time.” – Library Journal “Winters follows The Uninvited with another gripping historical novel, this one an exploration of the effects of suppressed trauma and desire. […]in this well-written tale that is suspenseful in all the right places, and will keep readers guessing at every page.” – Emily Park, Booklist “[…] Be warned; this is not a simple mystery with a paranormal twist. Here is a story of possible reincarnation and madness that grips readers from the opening dreary, cold moment to the end and leaves one feeling unsettled, yet satisfied […] Not a tale for the gentle reader.” – RT Book Reviews “This novel is engaging, gripping, and features an extraordinary main character in Alice, a woman ahead of her time, intent on independence.” – Book Riot
