Ernestine is cursed. At least, that is what some whisper about her. Others say she is possessed by the devil.

France 1815; Ernestine Emilie Prondre de Guermantes should have had it all. The French Revolution had ended. Her family not only survived but maintained their chateau and their fortunes as well.

However, she is plagued by a mysterious malady unlike any recorded illness. Occasionally, she loses control of her own body. Her limbs fly of their own accord and obscenities escape her tongue at all sorts of random intervals.

All Ernestine wants is to feel some sense of control over her own body and her own life.

Known for years simply as the mysterious "Mme. Dampierre" in medical journals, this woman was key to the discovery and naming of this curious condition. Her story is extraordinary. Her influence prevails though previously unknown and forgotten.

Inspired by true events, Madamn tells the story of the cursed noblewoman who refused to hide.

Baehr, J. S.: - Masquerading by day as a cashier and cleaning lady, J.S. Baehr spends her free time stepping back in time with her fancy quill and fountain pens, oil lamp, and historical novels. Growing up on a steady diet of Little House on the Prairie, American Girl, and Dear America books, J. S. Baehr was grounded from reading in middle school for living so much in the past (Who needs sleep?).To understand reality better, she studied sociology in college. There, she met the love of her life, but didn't convince him to marry her for another decade. Instead, she developed an "alter ego," her Tourette syndrome that she calls Paula. Letting Paula lead (as a pen name), she published 4 nonfiction works. J. S. Baehr finally decided to let her love of history take the lead and now writes biographical fiction.
