This book set in rural Wisconsin, 1909, is getting a lot of attention. In the bitter cold, Ralph Truitt, a successful
businessman, stands alone on a train platform waiting for the woman who answered
his newspaper advertisement for "a reliable wife." But when Catherine Land steps
off the train from Chicago, she's not the "simple, honest woman" that Ralph is
expecting. She is both complex and devious, haunted by a terrible past and
motivated by greed. Her plan is simple: she will win this man's devotion, and
then, ever so slowly, she will poison him and leave Wisconsin a wealthy widow.
What she has not counted on, though, is that Truitt - a passionate man with his
own dark secrets -has plans of his own for his new wife. Isolated on a remote
estate and imprisoned by relentless snow, the story of Ralph and Catherine
unfolds in unimaginable ways.
