Description
Based on a missing-persons case from 1898, this gripping tale transports readers back to a time when the disappearance of one woman shook the very foundations of a town.
In the quiet settlement of Goddenville, Newfoundland, the year 1898 was marked by a chilling mystery. Rosamond Barrett, a respected twenty-one-year-old woman, vanished on November 11 while on a simple errand to buy material for her wedding dress. Her disappearance sent shock waves through the community, and despite extensive searches, she remained missing for months.
The search for Rosamond became a story of regional interest, covered by newspapers and fuelled by gossip. On April 28, 1899, when Martin Whalen, a young man from the nearby hamlet of the Gullies, reported finding Rosamond's body, suspicion fell upon him, casting a shadow over his family for generations.
This fictional account, which eerily mirrors a true tale from the area, delves into the complex investigation led by Constable Joseph Kent, a troubled officer from the Newfoundland Constabulary. Faced with numerous obstacles, including an unsupportive sergeant and a wayward rookie colleague, Constable Kent must navigate through a web of rumours, sectarian tensions, and a lack of evidence to uncover the truth behind Rosamond's tragic fate.
