Professional reviews

"A gripping short story from the Costa-shortlisted author of The Girl in the Red Coat. The World of Shadow is an exclusive short story by new literary sensation and block busting thriller writer, Kate Hamer, created to introduce The Doll Funeral by delving into one of the characters in the book – Shadow. Shadow flits through The Doll Funeral; he has a close but often tempestuous relationship with the central character, Ruby. In this short story we rewind the clock to uncover a snapshot of Shadow’s life, discover more about his connection with Ruby, and experience the life, pain and love of this boy who has such a profound influence on the course of the book. Thick with mystery; The World of Shadow is essential reading by itself, and a perfect introduction to Kate Hamer’s work."
