From Publishers Weekly Rosalyn Landor proves a fine choice to narrate this Gothic tale of mystery, mistaken identity, and madness. Georgina Ferrars awakens to find herself in a private asylum called Tregannon House. With no memory of the past several days, Georgina learns that she checked herself into the facility under the name Lucy Ashton. What follows is a suspenseful story of dark intrigue, as Georgina struggles to convince her captors of her true identity, even as mounting evidence begins to shake her belief in her own sanity. Landor's clear, accented reading pulls the listener into the sinister halls of Tregannon, and her first-person narration perfectly conveys the heroine's sense of confusion and growing desperation. With her crisp, straightforward delivery, Landor keeps the listener enthralled as one clue after another is revealed, leading to a climax that is as satisfying as it is surprising. A Houghton Mifflin Harcourt hardcover. (May)

From Booklist Author of The Seance (2009) and The Ghost Writer (2004), Harwood, master of creeping Victorian horror, does it again in his latest tale of pervasive evil and madness. Tregannon House in the Cornwall countryside was not always an asylum, but, having been in the hands of weak-minded, ailing owners over generations, it now houses insane and depressed mental patients under the care and control of Dr. Maynard Straker. Unfortunately, Miss Georgina Ferrars is neither mad nor voluntarily committed. She awakens in a locked cell lacking memory of how she arrived and not knowing where she is, though she is certain of her identity. But the staff is convinced she’s Lucy Ashton and insist that she stay until she recovers her “correct” memory. The reader begins to question Georgina/Lucy’s narrative reliability as the story progresses: Is she lying or is the kindly doctor serving some evil purpose? Twisted in every sense of the word and wonderfully atmospheric, this dark psychological tale shocks by degree until truth of a sort is revealed, in a style similar to that of Joanne Harris’ Sleep, Pale Sister and D. J. Taylor’s Kept. --Jen Baker

Review

"A deliciously spooky pastiche of the high and low Gothic traditions and the tender heroines who live and die by them."—New York Times Book Review "Harwood, master of creeping Victorian horror, does it again. . . Twisted in every sense of the word and wonderfully atmospheric, this dark psychological tale shocks by degree until truth of a sort is revealed in a style similar to that of Joanne Harris' Sleep, Pale Sister and D.J. Taylor's Kept."—Booklist "Harwood evokes Charles Palliser and Louis Bayard in his engrossing third stand-alone Victorian thriller. . . The crisp prose and twisty plot will encourage many to read this in one sitting."—Publishers Weekly

"With Harwood's beguiling pastiche The Asylum, we're once again in a contemporary version of the Victorian Gothic mystery, with a lineage that stretches back to Wilkie Collins's The Woman in White and beyond. Though it's not a comfortable place for the beleaguered heroine, readers are guaranteed a thoroughly diverting time in Harwood's not-to-be-trusted hands."
