Lake of Sorrows - Brossura

'This literary thriller is so self-assured that it is hard to believe it is only Hart's second novel . . . it provides a compelling, even mesmerising, mix of themes . . . There's plenty of intricately plotted suspense to keep thriller fans happy, but one of the joys of this novel is Hart's rich, atmospheric writing. She brilliantly conjures up the bleak, claustrophobic dust-clogged badlands of the Irish peat bogs where the pagan past seems to lurk just centimetres below the surface.' Western Daily Press on LAKE OF SORROWS

'Every character is fascinating . . . there are so many beautifully realised lives in this novel . . . Yet it's an emotionally and intellectually gorgeous descent . . . Hart's language sings, and the gothic atmosphere lingers.' Publishers Weekly on LAKE OF SORROWS

'A treat for lovers of suspense novels.' Woman's Own on LAKE OF SORROWS
