Excerpt:


Chapter One

Boston – June 29th, 1885 – 2:17 AM


“No!” Emily O’Sullivan pushed her husband away.


Patrick rolled off onto his side of the bed and kept going, landing on the floor with a thump. She didn’t want sex—hadn’t wanted it for a while—especially now, when she still felt sore after the long and painful birth last week of their firstborn, Olivia.


Martha, Patrick’s mother, came to help with the birth but only stayed for two days after. More than ever, Emily missed her own mother, who died of fever earlier that spring. On top of everything else, she’d felt unaccountably weepy the past few days. She wanted to cry all the time. Yet she didn’t shirk her responsibilities, feeding and caring for her child like any loving mother. She even insisted Olivia be moved into the bedroom with them, so she could easily feed the infant during the night. Emily hoped Patrick’s drunken advances hadn’t disturbed the baby.


She turned up the low flame on the kerosene lamp and looked over at the crib. Olivia seemed fine. Emily reached over to dim the light, but a hand grabbed her arm and pinned it to the bed. Patrick did the same with her other arm. He kicked back the sheet and thin blanket and mounted her, taking an awkward moment to hike up his nightshirt.


“You have a duty to me as my wife.” His words came out slurred, but what mattered was straight.


Emily turned her head to the side and wept. It did hurt, and his insensitivity hurt just as much. He’d been a good husband until now. Since the birth, however, he’d taken to drinking with his pals and staying out until all hours, leaving her to tend to the baby. And now this. The pain. The humiliation. A moment later, she let out great gulping sobs, but that didn’t stop him—not until Olivia started screaming louder than she’d ever heard.


“Now, you’ve done it.” Patrick finally stopped and rolled off. “Go, take care of your daughter.”


Wiping tears from her eyes, Emily got off the bed and gasped. Olivia floated in the air, about five feet above the cradle. The infant’s face shone bright red from screaming with all her might. Emily screamed even louder as she ran to save her child.
