Riassunto

'Wonderful . . . A treat for everyone. I loved it so very much' Julie Cohen 'Compelling, clever and hugely imaginative, it brings the three Bronte sisters magnificently to life . . . Glorious fun - I adored it!' Miranda Dickinson From the Sunday Times-bestselling author of The Memory Book, Rowan Coleman, comes a special new series featuring the Bronte sisters, written under the name Bella Ellis Yorkshire, 1845 A young woman has gone missing from her home, Chester Grange, leaving no trace, save a large pool of blood in her bedroom and a slew of dark rumours about her marriage. A few miles away across the moors, the daughters of a humble parson, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Bronte are horrified, yet intrigued. Desperate to find out more, the sisters visit Chester Grange, where they notice several unsettling details about the crime scene: not least the absence of an investigation. Together, the young women realise that their resourcefulness, energy and boundless imaginations could help solve the mystery - and that if they don't attempt to find out what happened to Elizabeth Chester, no one else will. The path to the truth is not an easy one, especially in a society which believes a woman's place to be in the home, not wandering the countryside looking for clues. But nothing will stop the sisters from discovering what happened to the vanished bride, even as they find their own lives are in great peril... Praise for Rowan Coleman and The Vanished Bride: 'A delight' The Wall Street Journal 'Fun and inventive' Daily Mail 'Such a brilliant writer' Jill Mansell 'Clever and captivating' Milly Johnson 'A joy from start to finish' Alex Marwood 'Fun, charming and intriguing' Araminta Hall 'An incredible book - Bella Ellis is a very special talent' Angela Clarke 'Elegant, witty and compulsively readable - I think the Bronte sisters would have been delighted' Rosie Walsh What readers are saying about The Vanished Bride: 'Terrific' Ceecee 'A joy to read' Claire 'Bravo! I loved it! 5 super stars.' Andrea 'Can't wait for the next adventure!' Emma 'Before you know it you're hooked . . . More than worthy of five stars' Dave 'My dream book. I love the idea of the Bronte sisters solving mysteries' Sarah 'I absolutely loved seeing Charlotte, Emily, and Anne in a completely different light' Jo 'Literally came alive in my hands . . . so three dimensional I felt like a fourth sister.' Michelle 'At some points in the story I forgot that this wasn't the sisters telling me their real life 'detecting' (mis)adventures . . . can honestly say this is now one of my top three books of 2019' Lottie 'An excellent mystery to solve. I'd fit one piece into its proper place, then another, but I was nowhere close to completing the entire puzzle' Cathy
