The Housemaid's Daughter
Author:
Barbara Mutch
When Cathleen Harrington leaves Ireland in 1919 to travel to South Africa, she winds up isolated in a small town in the Karoo desert, her only real companions her diary and her housemaid. Then the housemaid’s daughter, Ada, is born, and Cathleen recognizes in her someone she can love and respond to in a way she cannot with her own family. Under Cathleen’s tutelage, Ada grows into an accomplished pianist and a reader who cannot resist turning the pages of the diary, discovering the secrets Cathleen sought to hide. As they grow closer, Ada sees new possibilities in front of her—a new horizon. But in one night, everything changes.
