About this audiobook
Robert Goolrick's riveting debut novel is both foreboding and sensual. When a wealthy man first meets his mail-order bride in 1907, he realizes this statuesque beauty is anything but a "simple missionary's daughter." But he doesn't know of her devious plan to leave Wisconsin as a rich widow. Nor does she know of the furious demons he longs to unleash during the lonely months of snowbound isolation. "A sublime murder ballad ."-Kirkus Reviews, starred review

If anyone has ever trusted almost blindly; wishing their love was true, but sadly discover the truths of his wife's lies. Her heart wrenching motives, almost beyond belief. Yet by some miracle, the softening of his catalog wives heart, the truth of falling in love prevails. This will be my second read. I can not wait; my heart currently needs to believe in, falling in love.
