Alias Grace by Margaret Atwood

This beautifully crafted work of the imagination takes readers back in time and into the life of one of the most enigmatic and notorious women of the nineteenth century, Grace Marks, convicted for her involvement in the vicious murders of her employer and his mistress. "Atwood's latest literary coup is, like the biblical account of Eve's fall from grace, first and foremost a hell of a good story".--"The San Francisco Chronicle".
