Based on a True Story, Alias Grace is a novelization of the life of Grace Marks, written by Margaret Atwood. Grace, a nineteenth-century Irish immigrant to Canada, is accused and convicted of murdering her employer, Thomas Kinnear, and his housekeeper, Nancy Montgomery; however, due to confusion about the facts of the case and Grace's own mental health, her sentence is commuted from death by hanging to life in prison. The novel takes place over a decade after the murders, in the Kingston Penitentiary, where Grace is being interviewed/interrogated by American psychologist Dr. Simon Jordan.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Adapted for CBC Television in 2017.

Alternate Character Interpretation: In-universe. Grace complains that nobody can seem to make up their mind about her. Some people insist she's a seductive murderess who was responsible for everything that happened, others that she was a terrified innocent trapped by a violent criminal. Still others say that she's mentally ill, or developmentally delayed. Grace just wishes they'd stop arguing and leave her alone.

Bedlam House: Grace briefly mentions her time in the mental hospital and says overall she prefers prison. Given the description of her life in jail, that's saying a lot about the condition of the mental hospital.
