Description
A Sign of Her Own by Sarah Marsh In 1880s America, Ellen Lark is on the cusp of marriage when she receives an unexpected visit from Alexander Graham Bell. The inventor's intentions are clear: he wants Ellen to speak up in support of his claim to the patent for the telephone. But Ellen has a different story to tell - one of betrayal and personal gain that could change everything. As Bell's ambition grows, so does Ellen's anger and determination. She must decide whether to stand by her former mentor or forge her own path. This is a story about the power of silence and the importance of speaking truth to power. With its vivid portrayal of life in 19th-century America, A Sign of Her Own is a powerful exploration of identity, community, and the struggle for recognition.
