The Trials of Lila Dalton by author L. J. Shepherd

"A powerful work that truly grips with its multiple levels of mystery and uncertainty."

- Jeremy Black, The Critic

“I found this book unputdownable from the first page. As the mystery deepens, readers will be on the edge of their seats, desperate to know what happens next.”

- Sophie Hannah

“Brilliantly written, fast-paced and a must for anyone who liked The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle.”

- Natasha Pulley, author of The Watchmaker of Filigree Street
