The River Widow by Ann Howard Creel

畅销书《威士忌海》的作者写了一部激动人心的小说,讲述了一位年轻女性在大萧条时期的生存和解放。

1937 年,洪水逼近,阿达·布兰奇意外杀死了虐待她的丈夫莱斯特,并将他的尸体投降在汹涌的河流中,结果她自己被冲走了。

于是,她开始了她的生存故事、回归文明、捍卫谋杀指控,以及为将自己和继女黛西从她丈夫臭名昭著的残忍家庭的魔掌中拯救出来的斗争,他们的目标是为莱斯特的死报仇。 基本上被困住了,阿达必须计划逃跑。

但当她对计划成功至关重要的那个人产生感情时,她面临着一个痛苦的选择:她是选择冒着一切风险拯救黛西,还是接受一个有爱心的男人提供的新生活?

From the bestselling author of The Whiskey Sea comes a stirring novel of a young woman’s survival and liberation during the Great Depression.

In 1937, with flood waters approaching, Adah Branch accidentally kills her abusive husband, Lester, and surrenders his body to the raging river, only to be swept away herself.

So begins her story of survival, return to civilization, defense against accusations of murder, and the fight to save herself and her stepdaughter, Daisy, from the clutches of her husband’s notoriously cruel family, who have their sights set on revenge for Lester’s death. Essentially trapped, Adah must plan an escape.

But when she develops feelings for the one person essential to her plan’s success, she faces a painful choice: Will she choose to risk everything saving Daisy or take the new life offered by a loving man?
