The gothic atmosphere in The Death of Jane Lawrence was done quite well and I really enjoyed how all the characters had a bit of 'unreliableness' to them which had me questioning everyone. Unfortunately, I felt like there was something missing in the ending - this is definitely not a book for those that don't like an open-ended conclusion.

Personally, I felt like the ending leant itself to

Augustine actually dying within Lindridge Hall, whether by accident via Jane or if the cellar really did collapse on him, and that Dr. Nizamiev has Jane under her care at the asylum with Jane imagining Augustine being safe with her.

However, based on an interview that I found with the author, it doesn't seem to be the case and the ending is pretty cut and dry.
