Strange Sight
Seeing isn’t always believing....
The second in a new series about witches, magic ...and Essex Girls!
Something strange is happening at the La Fleur restaurant. Bonnet-clad apparitions pass through walls, blood leaks from ceilings and rats besiege the dining room. But before the Essex Witch Museum investigative team Rosie Strange and Sam Stone can look into these strange sights, events turn darker - for La Fleur’s chef has been strung up and slaughteredlike a pig. And the only witness, the owner’s daughter Mary, swears blind a ghost is to blame... Rosie and Sam must find out what’s happening before Mary takes the fall, but intuitions and tip-offs lead them stumbling into the dark waters of the past, exposing awider conspiracy, as well as secrets all Rosie’s own.
Reviews
‘Once again, Moore pulls off the trick of combining incisive wit and spellbinding atmosphere with multiple layers of history and contemporary issues into one potent draft.’ Crimesquad
'Sexual Chemistry and supernatural happenings come together to form a read that's part 50% Jonathan Creek, 50% Moonlighting, and 100% bloody brilliant (in more ways than one...)' The Bookbag
‘Moore does an excellent job here of highlighting a real historical scandal with echoes in the present day.’ BLUEBOOKBALLOON
‘I became totally immersed in Rosie’s world – I loved her relationship with Sam, as well as the descriptions of London. Rosie is such a strong character; her fantastic wit is weaved throughout the narrative. The plot kept me guessing right until the end. I can’t wait for the next book in the series! Highly recommended.’ Elisabeth Carpenter, author of 99 Red Balloons
‘Forget Essex, Rosie Strange should be declared a national treasure. She is the best thing to happen to paranormal fiction in a long, long time.’ 10/10 Starburst Magazine
'A fun and thrilling read, one hugely impressive element is that Moore uses her light tone and intricate character relationships to address some serious points - ranging from people trafficking through to the derogatory stereotype of the Essex Girl. Lead character Rosie Strange is a woman to be admired with her ballsy, no-nonsense attitude, excellent boots and compelling family history. I can't wait to see more of Rosie, Sam and the Essex Witch museum in the future.' Cathi Unsworth, author of Weirdo and Without the Moon
