Publisher's Summary

On the outskirts of Nuneaton stands Hatters Hall, home to the mentally insane. One rainy, dismal day in 1857, Maria Mundy arrives there to work.

She is ordered to care for Isabelle Montgomery, daughter of an influential land-owner, but it becomes apparent that she has been falsely imprisoned. It’s going to take courage, determination, and resolve - but freedom is always worth fighting for.

Check your facts

A note to the author. Check your facts before publishing. The book sounded as though parts of it were set in America not Australia. Never have Australians had ranches. They were and are farms, properties or stations depending on size. Also we have verandahs not porches and you would not have found a swing on them only chairs. Very time I heard ranch the word grated and annoyed.
