A gripping saga that excavates the dark, all too human, secrets of a family straddling two continents, Alice Sees Ghosts combines cold psychological probing with deep compassion; pathos with humour. The felicity of Daisy's wordsmithing gives the narrative a unique personality and the reader wants to read on and on. And when it ends, entirely unexpectedly, on a happily-ever-after note, it leaves us with a humane alternative to the atomizing biological family of our day

Magical, unexpected and beguiling. Finding family can take you a long way from home – but also bring you back to it in the most magical way. Daisy Rockwell's dreamlike novel is an invitation to a quest brimming with friendly ghosts and unexpected discoveries

A delicious ghost story, a satisfyingly complex and dark-edged family saga, and a moving, often funny, novel about love. I enjoyed it from beginning to end
