A GMA book club pick!"--Cover. 520 $a "A gripping historical mystery based on the real-life diary entries of Martha Ballard, an 18th-century midwife who defied the legal system and wrote herself into American history. Maine, 1789: When the Kennebec River freezes, entombing a man in the ice, Martha Ballard is summoned to examine the body and determine cause of death. As a midwife and healer, she is privy to much of what goes on behind closed doors in Hallowell. Her diary is a record of every birth and death, crime and debacle that unfolds in the close-knit community. Months earlier, Martha documented the details of an alleged rape committed by two of the town's most respected gentlemen--one of whom has now been found dead in the ice. But when a local physician undermines her conclusion, declaring the death to be an accident, Martha is forced to investigate the shocking murder on her own. Over the course of one winter, as the trial nears, and whispers and prejudices mount, Martha doggedly pursues the truth. Her diary soon lands at the center of the scandal, implicating those she loves, and compelling Martha to decide where her own loyalties lie"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Ballard, Martha, $d 1735-1812 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Midwives $z Maine $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $z Maine $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Diaries $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Kennebec River Valley (Me.) $x Social life and customs $y 18th century $v Fiction. 650 6 $a Sages-femmes $z Maine $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a Meurtre $x EnqueÌtes $z Maine $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 651 6 $a Kennebec, ValleÌe du (Maine) $x MÅurs et coutumes $y 18e sieÌcle $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a Journaux intimes $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 600 17 $a Ballard, Martha, $d 1735-1812 $2 fast 650 7 $a Manners and customs $2 fast 650 7 $a Midwives $2 fast 650 7 $a Murder $x Investigation $2 fast 651 7 $a Maine $2 fast 651 7 $a Maine $z Kennebec River Valley $2 fast 648 7 $a 1700-1799 $2 fast 650 7 $a Midwives $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Homicide $v Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a Crime & mystery: women sleuths $2 thema 650 7 $a Contemporary lifestyle fiction $2 thema 650 7 $a Historical fiction $2 thema 650 7 $a Intended specifically for women and/or girls $2 thema 655 0 $a Historical fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction $2 fast 655 7 $a Fiction $2 fast 655 7 $a Historical fiction $2 fast 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf 776 08 $i Online version: $a Lawhon, Ariel. $t Frozen river. $b First edition $d New York : Doubleday, [2023] $z 9780385546881 $w (DLC) 2022057900 941 $a 2 $n 1 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20240530165652.0 $n 15 $p 15 LP copies 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20240219084647.0 $n 18 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=48F23B8ECF3111EE9084F518253FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
