“The Poppy and the Rose has all the elements of a classic BBC miniseries—an atmospheric house, intriguing characters, family curses, and mysteries that span generations. From the first pages, the characters captivate and the mystery spools ever wider, propelling the reader toward an unexpected twist both wrenching and poignant. The dual storylines interweave in a rich tapestry of historical threads, literary treasures, and supernatural elements to create a delightful take on the Gothic tradition. I slipped into these pages and lingered, relishing the story as I would a warm blanket on a cold autumn day.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ —Evangeline, Amazon review
