The Other Lady Vanishes by Amanda Quick
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Ambrosia of The Purple Booker

This one sounds very interesting. I thought it must be about some kind of hospital, probably a mental hospital. I've read other books by Amanda Quick, but it has been a while. Enjoy!
I enjoyed this one. Amanda Quick is an author I buy automatically. This week I am featuring A Merciful Silence by Kendra Elliot. Happy reading!
Between the cover, title, and intro, I'm hooked. I'd keep reading for sure. Hope you're enjoying it. Here's my link: https://wp.me/p4DMf0-1Cu
I've always liked Amanda Quick. This one is off to a good start. Enjoy.
This one is on my wishlist. I haven't read Amanda Quick's books in a long time, but I always liked her work.
I love that cover - what a fabulous period feel, right down to the font! It sounds really creepy... Thank you for sharing.
I usually like Amanda Quick, so I'd keep reading.
