'The rarest of things: a book which sets out unashamedly to entertain, and does so with wit, style and erudition.' * Sarah Perry * It was fun to spend time in this little corner of Essex. There was some real threat and excitement as well as a few spooky chills. And proof, as if it needed repeating, that you shouldnt mess with an Essex girl or her family. * Crime Review * 'Strange Fascination is the most entertaining, intricate, ingeniously structured and beautifully written entry so far... Moores storytelling has once again achieved a level most other supernaturally-themed mysteries can only dark-dream about.' * Starburst * It makes for a thoroughly good read Very much recommended. * Mystery People * Like an episode of Midsomer Murders, we get local rivalries, protestors, sexual undercurrents and nasty deaths and that's even before the supernatural seems to breaking loose All in all I think this book and the series its part of - an absolute triumph, with its own distinct voice, humour and at the centre a rather sweetly romantic story. * Bluebookballoon * Praise for Syd Moore:
'A fun and thrilling read, one hugely impressive element is that Moore uses her light tone and intricate character relationships to address some serious points - ranging from people trafficking through to the derogatory stereotype of the Essex Girl. Lead character Rosie Strange is a woman to be admired with her ballsy, no-nonsense attitude, excellent boots and compelling family history. I can't wait to see more of Rosie, Sam and the Essex Witch museum in the future.' Cathi Unsworth, author of Weirdo
