Susan Fletcher was born in 1979 in Birmingham. She is the author of the bestselling Eve Green (winner of the Whitbread First Novel Award), Oystercatchers and Witch Light - and most recently, the much-lauded Let Me Tell You About A Man I Knew.
Brilliant characterisation, beautiful and mesmerising story: like
entering a dream. I was spellbound and couldn't do anything else
but keep reading
*Jill Dawson*
A gorgeous, darkly gothic treat
*Amanda Craig*
House of Glass may start as a ghost story but turns into something
much more profound: a lyrical examination of how women carve lives
out of a male-dominated society, even with a war looming that will
change everyone. I was surprised and moved
*Tracy Chevalier*
Magical and often extremely moving. A gem
*Daily Mail*
Moody and atmospheric - and just as compelling [as Daphne du
Maurier] . . . Tense, thrilling and a true page-turner
*Image magazine*
Fletcher's prose is dreamily sensual, full of the light and heat of
an English summer, an eerie contrast to the shadows of the oncoming
First World War . . . House Of Glass is a beautifully written,
gloriously Gothic story of gardens, ghosts and old, uneasy
grudges
*Sunday Express*
With echoes of Daphne du Maurier, House of Glass is a mesmerising
ghost story set in a dilapidated country house where things go bump
in the night
*Good Housekeeping*
A very satisfying read with a clever twist. I loved it
*Four Shires*
Offers readers many of the pleasures of her earlier work . . . The
novel is haunted by secondhand memories of empire and by trees and
flowers transplanted from warmer climates, its version of England

*Guardian*
As her heroine faces increasing dangers, Fletcher neatly changes
the direction in which her story is heading. What seems initially a
tale of the supernatural develops into something more
*Sunday Times*
