\u201cBrampton is in my bones,\u201d says Golding, \u00a0released her debut novel, <\/span>The Innocent<\/em> (Blue Moon Publishers) last fall.\u00a0<\/span>The work of historical fiction is set in the Flower City, appropriate considering Golding\u2019s history with her hometown.\u00a0<\/span>The book opens in 1907 and follows Jessie Stephens and her family. A service is taking place in the Presbyterian Church but Jessie\u2019s father won\u2019t let the family enter its hallowed grounds.\u00a0<\/span>When she asks why, everyone is tight-lipped. But it somehow involves her grandfather Jesse Brady, who built the church.\u00a0<\/span>As she attempts to unravel the mystery, the protagonist learns more about her family, its history and the town she calls home.\u00a0<\/span>Golding says there\u2019s mystery in <\/span>The Innocent<\/em>. But, the book isn\u2019t a suspense novel. Instead, it\u2019s a look at a small-town Canadian city and the people who live there in an era of innocence that would soon be shattered by the First World War.\u00a0<\/span>The novel is inspired, at least in part, by the author\u2019s great aunt Jessie Roberts \u2014 who was born and raised in Brampton.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
