Praise for Under a Veiled Moon

Under a Veiled Moon, by Karen Odden
Under a Veiled Moon by Karen Odden

“An exceptional sequel to Down a Dark River … Odden never strikes a false note, and she combines a sympathetic lead with a twisty plot grounded in the British politics of the day and peopled with fully fleshed-out characters. Fans of Lyndsay Faye’s Gods of Gotham trilogy will be enthralled.” –Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
