520    "It's 1927 and eighteen-year-old Mary Engle is hired to 
       work as a secretary at a remote but scenic institution for
       mentally disabled women called the Nettleton State Village
       for Feebleminded Women of Childbearing Age. She's 
       immediately in awe of her employer -- brilliant, genteel 
       Dr. Agnes Vogel. Dr. Vogel had been the only woman in her 
       class in medical school. As a young psychiatrist she was 
       an outspoken crusader for women's suffrage. Now, at age 
       forty, Dr. Vogel runs one of the largest and most self-
       sufficient public asylums for women in the country. Mary 
       deeply admires how dedicated the doctor is to the poor and
       vulnerable women under her care. Soon after she's hired, 
       Mary learns that a girl from her childhood orphanage is 
       one of the inmates. Mary remembers Lillian as a beautiful 
       free spirit with a sometimes-tempestuous side. Could she 
       be mentally disabled? When Lillian begs Mary to help her 
       escape, alleging the asylum is not what it seems, Mary is 
       faced with a terrible choice. Should she trust her 
       troubled friend with whom she shares a dark childhood 
       secret? Mary's decision triggers a hair-raising sequence 
       of events with life-altering consequences for all."--
