Değerlendirmeler

'A compelling saga that will hold you fast from the first page to the last. Loved it'
-- Val Wood, author of The Lonely Wife
'This rollercoaster of a novel draws you in from the first page. Expertly researched and a fabulous storyline with real heart at the centre, the characters are so well-drawn they burst from the page but it's the art of dressmaking that is so beautifully captured here. Alongside the Dorset scenery it makes the perfect backdrop for this emotional, family saga. I devoured this in one sitting and look forward to more from this author. In short a gem of a read'-- Fiona Ford, author of Wartime at Liberty's
'The characters in this novel are so believable that I cared deeply about them from the first chapter. A heartfelt, hopeful account of one young woman's fight to keep her child safe when all the odds are against her. Atmospheric and beautifully written' -- JAN CASEY, author of The Women of Waterloo Bridge
'The Dressmaker's Secret was a delight to read. Dickson's flowing prose swept me into the story from the very first page, immersing me in her meticulously realised Victorian world. Lily Hayter is a wonderful heroine whose resilience and integrity shine through as she struggles to claim a life of her choosing and find a family. At the heart of the story is a warmth and humanity that makes it a truly uplifting read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was sorry when I reached the end because I wanted to linger in Dickson's world. I eagerly await more from Karen Dickson' -- Vicki Beeby, author of The Ops Room Girls
