'The Tumbling Girl is brilliant. [B]y a true authority on Victorian domestic murder, this book keeps you guessing till the end!' (A.J. West, award-winning author of The Spirit Engineer)
'I loved it from the opening line! It’s such a fresh and funny take on the genre, but gripping, too, and I love its authentic, feminist edge. Bridget writes wonderfully. It had me on the edge of my seat.' (S.J. Bennett, author of The Windsor Knot)
