Historical fiction set in 1870's London in which Margaret, a lonely woman approaching 30, becomes a âLady Visitorâ in the women's ward at Millbank Prison and befriends one of the inmates who is a spiritualist who holds séances and the like. It's a tale of ghosts, grief and longing, with a wicked twist that I should have seen coming but didn't. Quite similar in some ways to one of Waters' other works which I've read, so I was not as gung-ho about this one as I might have been had I read it first
