Alias ​​GraceBased on an infamous double murder in Canada in the 1840s, the novel Alias ​​Grace tells the story of a beautiful sixteen-year-old servant who conspired with a ranch hand to kill the their employer and his mistress and run away with their belongings. They were captured after several days and later, in a highly publicized trial, found guilty of premeditated murder. The young man, James McDermott, was sentenced to death, and the girl, Grace Marks, narrowly escaped. Alias ​​Grace begins after the killer has served 8 years in prison. The death of Nancy Montgomery, Kinnear's housekeeper and lover, was ignored as both villains had already been sentenced to death. Grace is in her thirties and was accused of the crimes when she was only sixteen. Grace is in prison where she was mentally tortured during her transition from prison to mental asylum over time. Doctors who want to "examine" her visit her often. Now he has an unconscious dislike for these doctors and the world he knows. She has become accustomed to remaining silent and invisible. A young doctor, Dr. Simon Jordan, took an interest in Grace. Dr. Jordan comes from a wealthy and well-known family, but is more interested in studying abroad about mental health and those locked up in mental asylums than about interests at home. He has little experience dealing with the issue of patients' sanity on a personal basis, but he is intrigued by this fabulously sensationalized killer. A group that has continuously sought Grace Marks' pardon has recruited the doctor with the hope that he will find Grace sane and innocent on all counts of murder. Jordan's main purpose is to help regain his lost memory of the time during the murders. This memory, which some believe was conveniently forgotten, contributed to her being convicted at trial; almost as if he had admitted to the murders. During his visits with Grace, Dr. Jordan encourages her to talk about her life before the murders. Grace begins her story with her family in Scotland. Grace was left with her abusive father and younger children after her mother died on the voyage to America. A journey undertaken more out of necessity than necessity: his father was in fact in financial difficulty in Scotland. Grace is sent to Canada as a servant.
