You know Miss Havisham, the world's most famous jilted bride. This is her daughter’s story. Raised in the darkness of Satis House where the clocks never tick, the beautiful Estella is bred to hate men and to keep her heart cold as the grave. She knows she doesn’t feel things quite like other people do, but is this just the result of her strange upbringing? As she watches the brutal treatment of women around her, hatred hardens into a core of vengeance. And when she finds herself married to the abusive Drummle, she is forced to make a deadly decision: should she embrace the darkness within her and exact her revenge? A stunningly original, gripping Gothic read, perfect for fans of Stacey Halls, Eve Chase, and Jessie Burton.
