Crystal Palace is a psychological thriller set in two locales: England during the Great Exhibition in 1851, and the U.S. in modern times. It is about Amelia (London, 1851) and Cecilia (Connecticut, 2015) and has a dramatic time travel/reincarnation twist. It is told in two distinctly different, alternating voices and styles – a Dickens/Bronte-inspired, literary, historical fiction puzzle with two tortured heroines and a stunning conclusion.
