In 1843, a 16-year-old Canadian housemaid named Grace Marks was tried for the murder of her employer and his mistress.

A decade and a half has passed since Grace was locked up, at the age of 16, for the cold-blooded murders of her employer Thomas Kinnear and his housekeeper/lover Nancy Montgomery.
