Isabel Costello will talk to Jane Rusbridge about her new novel, ROOK. Set in the ancient Sussex village of Bosham, Rusbridge?s mesmerising story of family, legacy and turning back the tides, explores the mystery surrounding Harold II?s burial place, the hidden histories of the Bayeux Tapestry, and connections forged through three women?s secrets.?ROOK beautifully evokes the shifting Sussex sands and the rich seam of history lying just beneath them and is part of an exciting new Bloomsbury imprint, Bloomsbury Circus.

Jane Rusbridge lives and works in West Sussex. Her first novel, The Devil?s Music, was nominated for the International IMPAC Literary Award in 2011; her second, Rook, is published by Bloomsbury?s exciting new literary imprint, Bloomsbury Circus. Jane has an MA in Creative Writing, and has taught both undergraduate and postgraduate levels at Chichester for more than ten years.

Isabel Costello studied Modern Languages at Oxford. While working on her first novel, she has established herself as an in-depth online book reviewer.? Her blog, On the Literary Sofa, also features listings, interviews and articles about fiction.
