Description

London, 1823. Isabella Baxter Booth's life is one of unholy terror, trapped in a hellish marriage with a husband who's increasingly violent and deranged. Desperate to escape her own dark impulses, she flees to Scotland, seeking refuge in her childhood home. There, she meets Alexander Balfour, an ambitious young doctor driven by a desire for greatness in the emerging science of psychiatry. He believes Isabella holds the key to unlocking his success, but as his own demons threaten to overwhelm him, can he truly be trusted to understand madness? As the boundaries between reality and insanity blur, one thing becomes clear: the line between good and evil is perilously thin.
