Harriet Vale is the critically acclaimed author of The Widow's Ledger and The Bone Collector of Whitechapel, celebrated for her immersive prose, intricate plotting, and richly atmospheric depictions of Victorian London. With a storyteller's instinct for suspense and a historian's eye for detail, Vale conjures a world where secrets have weight, justice is rarely swift, and determined women step out from the margins to uncover the truth.
Her debut, The Widow's Ledger, introduced readers to Eleanor Atwood, a grieving seamstress turned reluctant investigator, while The Bone Collector of Whitechapel followed Ivy Quill through the gaslit underworld of science, deception, and murder. Both novels were praised for their feminist lens, compelling mystery, and their unflinching exploration of class and power in the 19th century.
In her latest novel, The Seamstress of Paternoster Row, Vale returns to the smog-choked streets and shadowy societies of London's past with a new heroine and a fresh conspiracy stitched into silk and blood.
Harriet Vale lives in the countryside of Sussex, where she writes surrounded by her research books, rescued greyhounds, and too many teacups. Her next novel, The Lake, promises to venture beyond the city and into the mysteries hidden in the quiet wild.
