THE CONVICTION OF CORA BURNS
by Carolyn Kirby

Cora Burns is a product of institutionalization. Born in a workhouse in Birmingham, England, in the 1880s, she is used to being held back, punished for no reason. She worries that she may have violence inside of her, caused by her unfortunate mother who was a convict in the Birmingham gaol.

She is given a new chance when she is noticed by a local scientist who is running unethical social experiments on various citizens. She will be a servant in his house. The mysteries surrounding the household occupants disturb Cora, she is quite determined to discover what is going on.

Highly recommend a gothic, suspense, thriller.
