Description In 1887 New York City, Nellie Bly has ambitions beyond writing for the ladies' pages, but all the editors on Newspaper Row think women are too emotional, respectable and delicate to do the job. But then the New York World challenges her to an assignment she'd be mad to accept and mad to refuse: Go undercover as a patient at Blackwell's Island Insane Asylum for Women. For months, rumors have been swirling about the deplorable conditions at Blackwell's, but no reporter can get in-that is, until Nellie feigns insanity, gets committed, and attempts to survive ten days in the asylum. Inside, she discovers horrors beyond comprehension. It's an investigation that could make her career-if she can get out tot tell her story before two rival reporters scoop it.
