In the second series, the central novel, “The Heart of MidLothian, follows crime, justice, and moral conflict in 18th-century Scotland, especially the case of Effie Deans the fictional character in the novel. She is Jeanie Dean’s younger sister presented as pretty, impulsive, and more socially vulnerable than her sister Jeanie. In the novel, she is accused of killing her illegitimate child, though the truth is more complicated, and Jeanie travels to London to seek a pardon for her. Therefore her story centres on an out-of-wedlock pregnancy, a charge of child murder, and the efforts made to save her life, as well as the social consequences of her trial. warrnambool, shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, shipwrecked-artefact, book, waverley novels vol 46 tales of my landlord, sir walter scott, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, waverley novels
