ALA/The Reading List Best Horror 2021 Pick
Longlisted for the Bram Stoker Awards for Superior Achievement in a Novel, 2021

From the Bram Stoker-nominated author of The Luminous Dead comes a gothic fantasy horror—The Death of Jane Lawrence.

"Narrator Mandy Weston's cool narration is the perfect match to this tale, making the twists and turns in the plot especially surprising ...This tale mixes gothic horror, ghosts, and a love story to create a potent listen." - AudioFile Magazine

"A jewel box of a Gothic novel." —New York Times Book Review

“Delicious.... By the time the book reached that point of no return, I was so invested that I would have followed Jane into the very depths of hell.” —NPR.org

“Intense and amazing! It’s like Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell meets Mexican Gothic meets Crimson Peak.” —BookRiot

Practical, unassuming Jane Shoringfield has done the calculations, and decided that the most secure path forward is this: a husband, in a marriage of convenience, who will allow her to remain independent and occupied with meaningful work. Her first choice, the dashing but reclusive doctor Augustine Lawrence, agrees to her proposal with only one condition: that she must never visit Lindridge Hall, his crumbling family manor outside of town.

Yet on their wedding night, an accident strands her at his door in a pitch-black rainstorm, and she finds him changed. Gone is the bold, courageous surgeon, and in his place is a terrified, paranoid man—one who cannot tell reality from nightmare, and fears Jane is an apparition, come to haunt him. By morning, Augustine is himself again, but Jane knows something is deeply wrong at Lindridge Hall, and with the man she has so hastily bound her safety to.

Set in a dark-mirror version of post-war England, Caitlin Starling crafts a new kind of gothic horror from the bones of the beloved canon. This Crimson Peak-inspired story assembles, then upends, every expectation set in place by Shirley Jackson and Rebecca, and will leave readers shaken, desperate to begin again as soon as they are finished.

I loved this book so much more than anything I've read/listened to recently.
haunted house, gothic romance, magic and necromancy. . . even a little mathematics? more than a little horror and trepidation which makes it impossible to stop listening to to find out the source and conclusion of, at times as desperately in need of that as the books protagonist Jane lawrence who is also drawn inextricably into the mystery of the house of her husband. The way the writer leads you along with the protagonist is superb, as you are as kept in the dark and as surprised as Jane at each any every twist and turn, never quite knowing or expecting where you are being led, just as poor Jane. The end is perfectly in matching with the story and I'd be interested in reading more stories like this!

a gothic horror that hits the spot

I absolutely loved this book. It's a delicious Gothic horror that took some unexpected turns. Well read by the narrator.

Loved it from start to finish

Don’t be deceived by the first 30 mins because it appears like a love story. I was getting upset because I certainly did not want to read a romance. But it changed and how! Also, excellent climax.

Totally worth it
