The House That Charlotte Burned

By Dihn Bailey

In the unforgiving summer of 1890, off the treacherous coast of the Cape of Good Hope, all news indicated that the beautiful and rebellious Charlotte met an early watery grave. Heavily grieving, her husband, William, tears himself to shreds for a haunting possibility of her survival, constantly on the precipice of madness.
As news of the tragic shipwreck reached their secluded observatory in the heart of KwaZulu-Natal's handsome Midlands, the world crumbles for all who knew and loved Charlotte. The once vibrant love story, kindled amidst defiance and passion, now shattered remnants of a broken mind. William is left awash between insanity and reality, haunted by a relentless golden light and hints of Charlotte.
The House That Charlotte Burned is an emotionally charged historical novel that delves into the depths of love, despair, rebellion and grief, set against the backdrop of a bygone era in a beautiful part of the world. Will William succumb to the seductive pull of his grief, as he uncovers the truth hidden in leather-bound chronicles of Charlotte's too-short and tumultuous life? Join him on a harrowing and fractured journey through the treacherously toxic waters of loss, and madness.
