- Amelia Butterworth is the fun here, a nosy, sharp-tongued spinster who invites herself into a crumbling country house where travelers keep vanishing on the road outside. It's creaky Victorian gothic with a phantom coach and everything, so come for atmosphere and her voice, not tight plotting.
- You’ll enjoy its odd, tender collision between a Victorian village and an angel who has no patience for its rules. The vicar and his household try to make sense of him while Wells pokes at respectable hypocrisy, though the book is more wistful and episodic than sharply plotted.
