Story
Iris James has every reason to run away from home. Living in her uncle’s cold, loveless household has stripped her of everything – including her hope for the future. When a matrimonial agency matches her up with a widower in Mountain Pass, Oregon, she’s only too glad to accept. Though the challenge of stepping into a dead woman’s shoes and becoming a wife and mother all at once will be difficult, she can’t believe it could be any worse than staying in Philadelphia. But there’s far more to the story than she expects – her new husband is haunted by the ghosts of his tragic past.
