The Resource Setterfield, Diane

Description: British novelist Diane Setterfield knows well the elements of the traditional Gothic novel: ghosts, ruined mansions, hints of long-ago tragedy, and family mysteries, all wrapped up in an eerily suspenseful plot that gives away no secrets before their time. In addition to paying homage to the genre's forebears, she creates unique, memorable characters and presents familiar tropes with contemporary finesse. Her strong yet graceful storytelling carries readers through many twists and turns. Setterfield's work doesn't fit neatly into a single genre, which makes it appealing to many different readers. Start with: The Thirteenth Tale
