The Girl in the Corner
The Girl in the Corner
Bakers Lane Books August 2027
In 1869, under the 1864 Neglected Children’s Act, three wings of the Geelong Gaol were converted into an Industrial School for Girls, and 11-year-old orphan Anne Ingram was sentenced for vagrancy. A hundred and fifty years later, 13-year-old Ruby is dragged from London to the other side of the world by her mum for a new start—which she absolutely does not want. Ruby can hear whispering in the corner of her bedroom at night, and as the mystery around her new home, Grey Stones, and its connection to the old, abandoned Geelong Gaol deepens, she is forced to question everything she does—and doesn’t—believe in.

About Me
Emma Greville is an award-winning short fiction writer, Amazon best-selling author and freelance editor. An ex-English teacher from England with an MA in Literary Criticism, she trotted around the globe before settling in Victoria.
She can usually be found herding children, chooks and cats, and scribbling brilliant story ideas on scraps of paper, which she
promptly loses and blames on the badly herded children,
chooks and cats.
She is passionate about helping kids discover a love of reading and writing, and explore the world of words through school visits, presentations and writing workshops. She promises to leave the wild creatures at home.
Emma Greville is an author living and working in Djilang / Geelong in Wadawurrung Country and acknowledges this land has never been ceded.
