Mosaic

I’ve been a fan of Catherine McCarthy’s work for a few years now, but this was a high for me.

The voice of the main character seems almost instantly familiar. The mystery elements which unfold as you learn more about the strange goings on at the church, and the way the ending of the story is crafted are masterful.

Cults, cosmic horror, a fascinating artist protagonist with an intriguing back story. The prose in itself is just sumptuous, written in stunning detail and yet never relenting in terms of pace. I loved every page of this book.
