Summary:
Where does a person go when she loses her family, her home, and her place in a community? What can she do when she feels that she doesn't belong anywhere or to anyone? After John Snow of Salmon Cove, Newfoundland, disappears and Catherine, his wife, is convicted of complicity in his murder and hanged in 1834, Bridget, their eldest daughter, faces the challenge of losing more than her family and their home. She risks losing herself as she sets out on a perilous journey fraught with mystery and her future unfolds in a way she had not dared imagine. Strowbridge weaves a tantalizing tale of the elusive Bridget, the scattering of her family by a heartless magistrate, and her attempt at anonymity
--
all on the heels of her mother's execution, whose death is made all the more devastating when Catherine Snow's apparent criminal guilt is brought into question.
