Summary: Hatter's Hall is a forbidding place - home to the mentally insane. One rainy, dismal day in 1857, Maria Mundy arrives at Hatter's Hall, not as an inmate but as a worker. Here, she is ordered to care for Isabelle Montgomery, the daughter of an influential land-owner. But Isabelle is not insane, She like many other young women confined within solitary walls, has been banished by her family. Hatter's Hall also serves as a place to hide unmarried women, in the family way, from prying eyes... As their lives entwined, the women realise the perils of their predicaments as they both withhold secrets that could cost them everything.
