Extraordinary' LIZ HYDER author of The Gifts 'You can smell the spit and sawdust rising from the pages of this atmospheric gothic novel.' - RED Magazine 'A Violent, disturbing gothic tale compellingly told.' - The Guardian 'If you love Sarah Waters and dark historical fiction, you will no doubt be hooked.' - Diva magazine In the slums of 19th-century New York.

The Knowing is a darkly spellbinding novel about a girl fighting for her survival in the decaying criminal underworlds. Whilst working as a living canvas for an abusive tattoo artist, Flora meets Minnie, an enigmatic circus performer who offers her love and refuge in an opulent townhouse, home to the menacing Mr Chester Merton.
