    As usual, Sarah Waters has written a story where I think I know the ending, only to find out that I was wrong. Ms. Waters layers her story with intrigue and mystique, keeping the reader entranced until the surprise ending. She continues to be one of my favorite writers.

    Margaret Prior is a Victorian young lady who starts to visit the female residents of the local prison.

What follows is the meeting of these two women, who forge a relationship that calls into question Margaret's stability of mind.
