HER HEART FOR A COMPASS by FERGUSON, SARAH

Her Heart for a Compass

"A brilliant and glittering jewel of a novel. I was wholly swept away by this story." – Allison Pataki, New York Times bestselling author of The Queen's Secret

"A tale of daring and determination, set against the glamorous heights and harsh restrictions of aristocratic society in mid-19th century Britain." – Sir Julian Fellowes, creator of Downton Abbey

Written by Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, this novel follows Lady Margaret Montagu Scott, a young noblewoman navigating Victorian England’s rigid social rules.

Expected to marry advantageously, Margaret is impulsive and outspoken in a society that confines women in corsets and strict roles.

When her parents arrange a marriage, Margaret tries to accept it but flees just before the announcement, leaving a ballroom of two hundred guests stunned.

Banished from society, she dedicates herself to charity and finds strength among like-minded women, including Queen Victoria’s daughter, Princess Louise.

Margaret embarks on a journey of self-discovery across Ireland, America, and Britain, determined to live life on her own terms.

This bold, atmospheric costume drama explores a rebellious woman’s fight for identity amid social upheaval and technological change.
