About the book

A mystery lies hidden within an old book...

Unlock the secrets of The Birdcage Library by Freya Berry, author of The Dictator's Wife, as seen on BBC2 Between the Covers.

'Gothic, gorgeous and vividly atmospheric; an immersive literary page-turner to be swept up in' ELLERY LLOYD

Dear Reader, the man I love is trying to kill me...

Emily Blackwood, adventuress and plant hunter, travels north for a curious new commission. A gentleman has written to request she catalogue his vast collection of taxidermied creatures before sale.

On arrival, Emily finds a ruined castle, its owner haunted by a woman who vanished years before. And when she discovers the ripped pages of a diary, crammed into the walls, she realises dark secrets lie here, waiting to entrap her too...

A rich, beguiling story of long-buried secrets and dark obsession, The Birdcage Library will hold you in its spell until the final page.
