- Summary
- London, 1765. Lady Isabella Gerard, a respectable member of Georgian society, orders her maid to take her new gown and destroy it, its beauty tainted by the actions of her brutal husband the night before. Three months later, Lord Gerard stands at the shoreline of the lake, looking down at a woman wearing the gown. As the body slowly rolls over to reveal her face, it's clear this was not his intended victim. 250 years later. When a gown she stole from a historic home as a child is mysteriously returned to Fenella Brightwell, it begins to possess her in exactly the same way that it did as a girl. Soon the new life Fen has created for herself away from her abusive ex-husband is threatened at its foundations by the gown's power over her until she can't tell what is real and what is imaginary. As Fen uncovers more about the gown and Isabella's story, she begins to see the parallels with her own life. When each piece of history is revealed, the gown and its past seems to possess her more, culminating in a revelation set to destroy her sanity
