The Story of a Radium Girl

Samantha Wilcoxson


Blurb:

Tragic true story of a radium girl.

Catherine's life is set on an unexpected course when she accepts a job at Radium Dial. The dial painters forge friendships and enjoy their work but soon discover that an evil secret lurks in the magical glow-in-the-dark paint. When she and her friends start falling ill, Catherine Donohoe takes on the might of a big corporation and becomes an early pioneer of social justice in the era between world wars.

Emotive and inspiring - this book will touch you like no other as you witness the devastating impact of radium poisoning on young women's lives.

It's too late for me, but maybe it will help some of the others.
~ Catherine Wolfe Donohue


Praise for Luminous:

"Luminous is a gripping fictional account of Catherine Donohue's life, told with such passion, honesty and empathy, it stays with you for a long time. And perhaps that's a good thing. It makes us listen up. I can't recommend this novel highly enough."
~ Ruins & Reading, 5* Review & Book of the Year 2021

"The story of Catherine Donohue is told lovingly and poignantly in Luminous. Readers are drawn along through a story filled with eagerness, hope, faith and friendship, but with the skill I've come to expect from Samantha Wilcoxson. As always, her writing tugs at the heart all along the way."
~ Author Stephanie Churchill



This title is available to read on #KindleUnlimited.
