Summary:
In the harsh wilderness of colonial Massachusetts, Martha Allen is forced to take work as a servant in her cousin's home. At nineteen, practically a spinster, Martha locks wills with everyone - including Thomas Carrier, the tall and resolutely silent hired worker whose stubborn independence matches her own.
