From the bestselling author of "The Familiars" and "The Foundling" comes Stacey Hall's most compelling and ambitious novel to date.
Something is not right here. In the house. With the family.
West Yorkshire, 1904.
When newly-graduated nurse Ruby May takes a position looking after the children of Charles and Lilian England, a wealthy couple forming a powerful dynasty of mill owners, she hopes it will be the fresh start she needs. But as she adapts to life at the isolated Hardcastle House, it becomes clear there is something not quite right about the beautiful, mysterious Mrs. England.
Ostracised by the other servants and feeling increasingly uneasy, soon a series of strange events will force Ruby to question everything she thought she knew.
Simmering with slow-burning menace, "Mrs. England" is a portrait of an Edwardian marriage, weaving an enthralling story of men and women, power and control, courage, truth, and the very darkest deception. Set against the atmospheric West Yorkshire landscape, Stacey Hall's third novel proves her one of the most exciting and compelling new storytellers of our times.
Praise for "Mrs. England":
Stacey Halls is a writer of great originality, great imagination, and great sense of place. Atmospheric, intelligent, accessible, every novel is worth reading, then reading again and again.
