Reviews
A highly readable historical fantasy... Hilton is a vivid storyteller -- Emma Hagestadt * Independent *
In the same way that Madeline Miller's Song of Achilles was a pleasingly accessible idiot's guide to Greek mythology, this is something of a crash course in the Medici era. A richly detailed page-turner which fans of Philippa Gregory will love. -- Viv Groskop * Red *
Beautifully written, compelling, gripping and moving, Wolves in Winter will take you to another world you will never want to leave. A fantastic, unforgettable novel, passionate and full of drama and despair, this is historical fiction at its best -- Kate Williams
