Lost in Darkness

Michelle Griep is one of my go-to authors. So when I saw her newest book, of course, I was eager to read it, and I was not disappointed! It is another great story as the suspense and tension kept my attention throughout this historical fiction set in early 1800s London. The characters are endearing, with depth and authenticity. Colin stole my heart, and I just wanted the best for him. Amelia is strong and will do anything to help her brother, even setting aside her own dreams to follow her father's wishes. The story moves rather quickly as Griep expertly weaves faith and romance in with tender moments as well as rather shocking events. I was captivated by this Gothic story that is reminiscent of Frankenstein. Lost in Darkness is a book that lovers of historical fiction will not want to miss. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publishing. A favorable review was not required, and the opinions are my own.

5 stars, Gothic Romance LOST IN DARKNESS by Michelle Griep A new twist on a very old story, the story of Frankenstein. Colin is a troubled soul, he and his sister Amelia had lived in fear of their father and even after their father died, his cruel machinations are coming forward onto Colin. Amelia has been tasked with getting reconstructive surgery for Colin, paid for out of their father's estate. Colin knows what he is and what he looks like and he'd rather be left alone on the family's country estate. But, no one is listening.
