Laura Whitcombová píše s citom pre tajomstvo a podivné javy, ktoré prenikajú do všedného života. Jej diela skúmajú tenkú hranicu medzi realitou a nadprirodzenom, často zasadené do prostredí, ktoré samy osebe skrývajú skryté príbehy. S citom pre detail a atmosféru vtiahne čitateľov do svetov, kde sa obyčajné stretáva s neobyčajným. Jej štýl je starostlivý a evokatívny, čím vytvára nezabudnuteľné literárne zážitky.
