It was the reference to "Gaslight" starring Ingrid Bergman that originally attracted me to this novel. The early 1900s were a scary time if you were a woman... Wives were considered to be the 'chattel' of their husbands with few rights of any description. Even wealth could not spare a woman if her husband seeks to rid of her, as our protagonist, Millie Turner, soon discovers. Born into wealth, spoiled, entitled, and very naive, Millie is ill equipped to fight the confines of her marriage. She has few life skills, and the laws of the time are not on her side. Set on Long Island's North Shore, when the area was considered remote. Millie lives in a grand mansion called Rose Briar Hall. A house with over twenty servants, she wants for nothing. She and her new husband are planning a lavish party to celebrate the final touches on their mansion and Millie has it all in hand. Then, weeks later, she awakens to a cold, dark, house. The servants have all been let go, with the exception of three or four that were chosen (and are loyal to ) her husband Charles. At the tender age of twenty-four, Millie is faced with an impossible dilemma. She is told that she has murdered a woman who attended her party, a woman that had designs on Charles. With no memory of the party, Millie is told that she has been shunned by all of her society friends. Even her parents are not there for her in her time of need... Drugged, and misinformed, Millie struggles to escape Charles' clutches. He is determined that she is 'hysterical' and that she must be institutionalized! What follows is how Millie strove to become independent of Charles. With doctors, police, and the very law in her husband's favour, it is no easy task. Her eyes are opened to her own snobbery and pampered lifestyle as she finds herself outside her usual social circle. She is tested to her very limits. As a female reader, I found myself seething at the injustices of the time. Though the bones of the story were eminently readable, I found the overall feel of the novel to be rather traditional in its predictability. However, that being said, I did enjoy the read even though it didn't blow me away.
