Publisher's Summary

A new Brontë Mystery from Bella Ellis, a pen name for best-selling author Rowan Coleman. 

It's Christmas 1856 and Haworth is in the grip of a freezing winter. Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë are rather losing interest in detecting until they hear of a shocking discovery: the bones of a child have been found interred within the walls of a local house, Top Withens Hall, home to the scandalous and brutish Bradshaw family. 

When the sisters set off to find out more, they are confronted with an increasingly complex and sinister case, which leads them into the dark world of orphanages and onto the trail of other lost and likely murdered children. After another local boy goes missing, Charlotte, Emily and Anne vow to find him before it's too late. 

But in order to do so, they must face their most despicable and wicked adversary yet - one that would not hesitate to cause them the gravest of harm....

Excellent.

This was an excellent audiobook. The story, the characters, the setting and imagery were all thoughtfully and skilfully developed.

The way the author wove in elements of different stories and characters from their works was clever and entertaining, and the originality of the story made it interesting and intriguing.

A huge fan of the Brontes and their writing, I found this book to be consistent with what we know of their personalities, and really enjoyed the way fact was intertwined with fiction. .
