1914. Clara Waterfield twenty years old and newly bereaved is summoned to a large stone house in rural Gloucestershire. Her task: to fill a glasshouse with exotic plants from Kew Gardens to create a private paradise for the owner of Shadowbrook. But on arrival she hears dark rumours. Flowers are dying in their vases curious marks appear on doors - and the maids seem nervous afraid. Who lived at Shadowbrook before? And who is living there now? `House of Glass may start as a ghost story but it turns into something much more profound: a lyrical examination of how women carve lives out of a male-dominated society even with a looming war that will change everyone. I was suprised and moved' Tracy Chevalier `It is beautiful and mesmerising like entering a dream. I was spellbound and couldn't do anything else but keep reading' - Jill Dawson 'Menacing characters dark secrets... A hothouse of a novel... ' - Caroline Sanderson The Bookseller (thumbnail photo of author and Let me Tell you about a Man I knew)
