In The Garden Series 3: Red Lily

Title: In The Garden Series 3: Red Lily
Author: Nora Roberts
Genre: Romance, Mystery
Time:  hours

For the final installment of the series, this time, the Amelia story is intertwined with Halyley & Harper’s.  I guess it would be too unrealistic already to have very specific details of the past documented and still surviving a hundred years later (not that having a crazy ghost possessing Hayley is “realistic”, haha).
 
So I finally found out what happened to Amelia.  She wasn’t killed as I guessed. She planned to kill herself and the baby in the Harper House so they can be together forever and in their “rightful” place.  But she only succeeded in killing herself.  The nursemaid saved the baby.  I think she was suffering from a severe bout of post-partum depression and not “crazy already” as the other characters believed.  Because if she was already crazy pre-baby then that would mean that crazy runs in the family and there’s no evidence of that.  Post-partum depression makes more sense and the baby kidnapping pushed her to the edge.
