The Maidens has been on my radar since I first saw the cover early this year - the imagery with the broken greek statue just stuck in my brain and I can't stop thinking about it! I've always been fascinated by stories with plays on Greek Tragedies, so to see a modern version of that is really interesting - especially with, what seems to be, a modern spin on Persephone & Hades.
I'm always a big fan of cold opens, like the one in the Prologue - writing that captivates you from the first page. Just after reading the first few lines, I was interested in learning more about this story and unravelling the mystery around Edward Fosca!
