Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. First American Edition. In an attempt to escape her not-so-innocent past in Glasgow, Bessy Buckley, the wide-eyed Irish heroine of THE OBSERVATIONS, takes a job as a maid in a big house outside Edinburgh working for the beautiful Arabella. Bessy is intrigued by her new employer, but puzzled by her increasingly strange requests and her insistence that Bessy keep a journal of her most intimate thoughts. And it seems that Arabella has a few secrets of her own, including her near-obsessive affection for Nora, a former maid who died in mysterious circumstances.
