The Laura Purcell Collection: The Silent Companions, The Corset and Bone China

by Laura Purcell

Three atmospheric Victorian gothic tales: a widow haunted by sinister wooden figures, a seamstress imprisoned for murder revealing corset-bound secrets, and a pottery painter uncovering horrific truths in bone china. Purcell's collection masterfully evokes period dread, where domesticity conceals darkness and the past refuses silence.
