My Name is Eleanor (2016) told the true story of Mary Eleanor Bowes, Countess of Strathmore, ancestor of the Queen, whose second marriage to an abusive con-man and fortune-hunter led to notoriety and near ruin. When Stoney was finally imprisoned in the King's Bench Prison, he was able to seduce the daughter of a fellow prisoner who bore him 5 children: Molly is one of them. Fiercely independent and determined to evade the fate that had befallen her mother, Molly sets out for freedom in a world fraught with dangers. When her baby vanishes at the Peterloo Massacre, she must turn for help to the family who put her father in prison. Molly's search through nineteenth century England takes her from a London Prison to radical Tyneside; from medieval Newcastle to the City of Palaces; from Thomas Bewick's woodcuts to the finest European art and literature; from the criminal underworld to the glories of Gibside and The Bowes Museum.
