Description
In 1835, Utica, New York is a city torn apart by moral and political upheaval. For newlywed Helen Galway, a shocking discovery in her home sets off a chain reaction of difficult choices. Two people who have escaped enslavement are hiding in the shack behind her husband's house, forcing her to confront the era's greatest moral dilemma. As tensions rise, Helen is haunted by the presence of her late predecessor, Mrs Galway, and must navigate the complex web of relationships within her home. A doctor with questionable ambitions watches over her, while a former slave, Maggie, struggles to find her place in this new world. As abolitionists arrive in town, the local papers accuse them of treason, putting everyone on edge. In this powerful debut, Deirdre Sinnott masterfully weaves together the personal and political landscapes of 19th-century America, creating a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and survival.
