She was hired to prove the factory was innocent. Then she fell in love with the woman gathering the evidence against it.
New Jersey, 1924. Ada Mercer owes her family's security to Meridian Dial Works. When the women painting its luminous watch dials begin falling ill, she is sent to investigate their claims. Her assignment is clear: protect the company that gave her a future.
Nell D'Amato has a different future in mind. Outspoken, stubborn, and determined to make someone listen, she is gathering the evidence her employers would rather forget, preserving dangerous secrets in the hems of ordinary clothes.
Ada trusts records. Nell knows who gets to write them.
What begins in suspicion becomes an attraction neither woman can afford. But every stolen moment brings Ada closer to a truth that threatens her livelihood, her loyalties, and everything she has believed about the people who helped her family escape poverty.
To protect the company, she must discredit Nell. To stand beside Nell, she must become someone the company can no longer control.
Set against the history of the Radium Girls, The Radium Seamstress follows fictional heroines through a deeply human story of forbidden love, betrayal, and women fighting to be believed. Blending an enemies-to-lovers romance with medical and courtroom drama, it explores the difference between owing someone your gratitude and owing them your silence.
