In 1776 a young, beautiful woman with graceful manners appeared in a rural Somerset village just outside Bristol and set up home in a haystack. She stayed there for four years, attracting the interest of the rich and famous. Who was she? Why did she behave so oddly? Her story sparked an 18th Century conspiracy theory touching on the most powerful people in Europe.
Maid of the Haystack faithfully recounts the tale, adding another level of speculation and intrigue. The story brings 18th Century England to life and holds a mirror up to attitudes to mental health, the treatment of women and acts of charity by the rich and famous.
