She Who Comes Forth by Audrey Driscoll
A strange and mysterious tale
I’ve always found all-things Egypt utterly fascinating, so this book had a massive tick before I’d even started. The writing is polished, which makes the reading experience extremely enjoyable. France Leighton’s story of travelling to Egypt with her cello and all that follows is strange, which fortunately is precisely the point! For me, there was a slight imbalance between the first third or so of the book and the latter stages where most of the action takes place. This set-up phase could have been shorter, leading the reader into the glorious weirdness sooner. If you enjoy Lovecraftian tales and Egypt, then this book is for you.
