Professional reviews

"Both a breathtakingly accomplished love story and a gripping search for identity and survival, She Rises is a bold and utterly original novel ‘An immensely enjoyable novel, full of energy, intelligence and delicious turns of phrase. Worsley does just what a great historical novelist should do: she inhabits her characters without strain, without fuss, but with obvious assurance, making them and their period feel utterly close and convincing. I can't wait to see more of her fiction.’ SARAH WATERS"
