About The Dark Unwinding
Katharine Tulman is dispatched to her uncle’s remote estate to have him declared insane before he wastes the family fortune. Instead she discovers a brilliant inventor whose work supports a community of nine hundred people rescued from London’s workhouses. As the estate’s mysteries unfold, Katharine must choose between her security and protecting a place—and an apprentice—she has come to love.
