My Bookish Thoughts 💬
I absolutely adored Bonnie’s accomplished debut, I Died At Fallow Hall, so when she kindly offered me a proof of her next novel, I jumped at the chance!

Naturally, I had high hopes – Fallow Hall was one of my favourite reads last year – and I’m thrilled to say she’s smashed it again. Dead as Gold is a unique gothic thriller, deftly entwined with fairy tale elements. It’s atmospheric, mysterious, full of surprises, and features a brilliant cast of characters – one of which is the seaside town of Morrow itself.

I especially loved Ophelia, Adam, and little Felix. Kind and sensitive DI Kent, paired with the witty Culvers, made a wonderful detective duo. Huge congratulations to Bonnie for crafting another gripping and entertaining read – I’m already eagerly awaiting book three!

A huge thank you to @bonnieburkepatel @bedfordsq.publishers for this beautiful proof copy and @netgalley for sending me a digital copy in return for my honest review.

Oh what a joy this book is ..

It is part gothic thriller part fairy tale and tells the most unusual and brilliant story.

I loved getting to know the characters especially Ophelia she is a sad but interesting lady.

I loved this book so much I immediately told my book club about it .. they now all cannot wait to read it
