Critics Review
Just loved it! What a wonderful and inspiring story.– Jill Mansell
Captivating … With a plot rich in description, written in a straightforward style that reflects the no-nonsense attitude of its heroine, this is an inspiring read. - The Lady on SONG OF THE SEA MAID
Rebecca Mascull’s second novel continues to showcase her talent for writing intelligent, impeccably researched, absorbing historical fiction. Dawnay Price - foundling, scientist, feminist - is a wondrous character and I was on the edge of my seat following her fortunes. - Louise Walters, author of MRS SINCLAIR’S SUITCASE on SONG OF THE SEA MAIDHaunting - Irish Tatler on THE VISITORSAbout The Author
