— Rebecca Hodge, award winning author of Wildland and Over the Falls
This is a tale of courage and reckoning, of a woman’s life turned upside down and then righted, or righted enough, a story whose pages will not stop turning because Lizbeth will not let them. Cannon gives readers just what they want from a historical, yet superbly contemporary, novel: stay-up-until-the-sun-comes-up reading.
— Mary Lou Sanelli, Author of Every Little Thing
