Inspired by true events, Liberty Street is at once poignant and dazzling—an unforgettable, intertwining story about resilience, mental health, and the power of female connection.
Amazing!
"Liberty Street was truly captivating, eye-opening, and suspenseful. I loved the mystery element, the dual historical timeline, the varied life experiences explored, and the way the character’s stories were brought together. Heather Marshall reveals so much about this point in history of women’s rights in Canada. It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come and especially enjoyable for me to see the role Chatelaine magazine played in the evolution of feminism since my mom had a subscription so I grew up with that magazine in my house and I would read it too. This author does such a great job of blending the historical details with personal stories, and the characters feel so real and easy to connect with. It’s emotional, tragic, heartbreaking, but also inspiring. Overall, it’s a powerful, memorable read about strength, resilience, and the impact people can have on each other. An unforgettable read!"
