Samenvatting
"The simmering menace and mystery kept me absolutely gripped...a smoldering novel that I could not put down." Jennifer Saint, author of Ariadne
"Rebecca meets The Secret History: gloriously dark, gloriously Gothic." Sara Collins, bestselling author of The Confessions of Fannie Langton
Named a Best Book of 2021 by Goodreads Entertainment Weekly Parade PopSugar Brit+Co Romper Frolic Crime Reads SheKnows.com Women.com
Discover the secrets of Caldonbrae Hall in this riveting, modern gothic debut set at an all girls' boarding school perched on a craggy Scottish peninsula.
For 150 years, high above rocky Scottish cliffs, Caldonbrae Hall has sat untouched, a beacon of excellence in an old ancestral castle. A boarding school for girls, it promises that the young women lucky enough to be admitted will emerge "resilient and ready to serve society."
Into its illustrious midst steps Rose Christie: a 26-year-old Classics teacher, Caldonbraes new head of the department, and the first hire for the school in over a decade. At first, Rose is overwhelmed to be invited into this institution, whose prestige is unrivaled. But she quickly discovers that behind the schools elitist veneer lies an impenetrable, starkly traditional culture that she struggles to reconcile with her modernist beliefs--not to mention her commitment to educating "girls for the future."
It also doesnt take long for Rose to suspect that theres more to the secret circumstances surrounding the abrupt departure of her predecessor--a woman whose ghost lingers everywhere--than anyone is willing to let on. In her search for this mysterious former teacher, Rose instead uncovers the darkness that beats at the heart of Caldonbrae, forcing her to confront the true extent of the schools nefarious purpose, and her own role in perpetuating it.
A darkly feminist tale pitched against a haunting backdrop, and populated by an electrifying cast of heroines, Madam will keep readers engrossed until the breathtaking conclusion.
They want our silence
They want our obedience
Let them see our fire burn
