The butterfly cabinet : a novel

McGill, Bernie 1967- (Author).

Summary: When Maddie McGlade, a former nanny now in her nineties, receives a letter from the last of her charges, she realizes that the time has come to unburden herself of a secret she has kept for decades: What really happened on the last day in the life of Charlotte Ormond, the four-year-old only daughter of the big house where Maddie was employed in her youth? Bernie McGill has crafted a haunting, heart-stopping debut novel that touches powerfully on themes of motherhood, class and religion. Based on real events in late 19th-century Ireland.
