for the car accident warning: obviously, there were no cars in 1840s Britain! but there was an accident with a horse and carriage which was quite shocking. also for the death of parent warning: there are several, but they all happen off-page. for drug abuse: several people are drugged multiple times against their will. for rape: a woman is "medically" examined internally while unconscious (and unconsenting). it isn't sexual but she is essentially raped.andougherty's review

The novel follows the stories of four women Etta, Natalya, Annie, and Mary. Four very different women all brought together.
I absolutely loved this novel
