Editorial Review	This is terrific. Perfect setting, great build-up, chilling. What more could you want ? * Susan Hill, author of The Woman in Black * Layering on the dark and creepy, this intriguingly plotted novel is the full-blown Gothic, maintaining throughout an unsettling claustrophobic atmosphere mixed with some unusual historical detail * Daily Mail * A deliciously creepy ghost story * Sunday Express * Laura Purcell has nailed it with a story that conjures up Susan Hill's The Woman In Black, Henry James's The Turn Of The Screw and a little bit of Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier * Emerald Street * A creepy, unsettling tale that I had to finish reading in broad daylight * Stylist, 'Must-Read Books' * A sinister slice of Victorian gothic... creepy and page-turning * The Times * A perfect read for a winter night ... Intriguing, nuanced and genuinely eerie * Guardian * Really tense and unnerving, it still won't let me go * Woman & Home * A true page-turner...neatly crafted and compelling...with a spine-tingling revelation every few pages * Times Literary Supplement * Irresistibly creepy, this romps along, Purcell turning her screws with skill. It's what crumpets and dismal afternoons were made for * Glamour * Writing in the tradition of country house ghost stories, Laura Purcell has created a book that is unnerving and compelling in equal measure. The Silent Companions is an atmospheric gothic tale which chills the blood * Sophia Tobin, author of the Sunday Times bestseller The Silversmith's Wife and The Widow's Confession * Not since The Little Stranger has a book so entranced and haunted me. Compelling, bewitching and beautifully written. Read it if you dare * Anna Mazzola, author of The Unseeing * A superbly atmospheric, tense novel full of creeping dread. I could only read it during daylight hours! * Red * A brilliant, unsettling debut. Don't read just before bedtime! * Prima * If The Silent Companions lands on your night table, don't plan on leaving your bed anytime soon. Immersive, meticulous, and reminiscent of the masters of gothic fiction - not only a compulsively readable ghost story, but a skillful, loving ode to the entire genre * Lyndsay Faye, author of The Gods of Gotham * Frighteningly atmospheric, genuinely haunting and psychologically astute, the horror of The Silent Companions lingers like truth in the darkest corners of the human mind * Helen Sedgwick, author of The Comet Seekers * This incredibly creepy ghost story plays out in the very best tradition against a backdrop of a crumbling house ... Superb * Saga * Things begin to go bump in broad daylight as well as the night. Compulsively creepy * Sunday Mirror * Menacing and unsettling * Psychologies * Compelling and claustrophobic. The pages all but turn by themselves * Essie Fox, author of The Last Days of Leda Grey * Magnificently creepy ... I really wished it were longer * Natasha Pulley, author of The Watchmaker of Filigree Street * You may want to leave the light on once you put down this intensely spooky Gothic chiller ... Irresistibly creepy * The People *
