Midwife in 1780s who lives in cabin and has a happy marriage defends a woman that was assaulted by a respected man. Setting is snowy winter and cabins. I loved the setting and could feel the cold and I connected with all but a few of the characters.

I enjoyed this book, although there were a lot of characters to keep track of. The story was intriguing although a little complex as how mystery unfolds. As a bonus, I enjoyed the love story of Martha & Ephram and the respect and tenderness he had for her.

Likes the book very much. Interesting to learn about life in a small settlement town in early America and their similarities with contemporary societal struggles. Lots of characters to juggle and some were not fully developed.
