A gothic fantasy, full of secrets, mystery and suspense. The tale of a young, cunning woman - Asher Todd - who takes a position as governess to the three children of Moorwood family, and her ulterior motives for taking on this role.
I love a dark, twisted fairytale, and thoroughly enjoyed The Path of Thorns. A story where witches, werewolves and ghosts are more than just myths. I loved learning of Asher's past, and watching as she learns that she's not the only in town with dark secrets.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of this book, in exchange for an honest review.
