Praise for What She Left Behind:
"What She Left Behind screams with authenticity, depth, and understanding." -The New York Journal of Books
"Wiseman does an excellent job of conveying the horrifying methods employed to cure the mentally ill...What She Left Behind is a real page turner and will appeal to all readers of fiction, though the subject matter is not for the faint of heart." - The Historical Novels Review
"This amazing book tells the stories of two women divided by many decades, both facing overwhelming odds. The stories are told in alternating chapters, but these stories, despite their great differences, have similarities and are destined to come together. A great read!" - The San Francisco Book Review
"Here's a little book that's full of fear. Just as the night monsters in Mayhem rouse an atavistic terror that we moderns can't seem to shake, so does the symbolism in Ellen Marie Wiseman's, What She Left Behind. This time, it's the insane asylum, the lunatic bin and all the other politically incorrect names for the creepy facilities that housed the poor patients of another era." - The Toronto Star
