Perfect for you if...

You love historical fiction rooted in real people and want to learn about lesser-known figures who changed history.
You're drawn to stories of women enduring impossible circumstances where survival becomes an act of defiance.
You appreciate character-driven narratives that explore spiritual transformation through hardship and isolation.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer fast-paced plots with constant action rather than psychological depth and introspection.
You're uncomfortable with descriptions of physical suffering, abandonment, and the brutal realities of survival.
You want light, escapist reading rather than narratives that sit with loneliness and desperation.

About this book

A young woman and her lover are marooned on an island in this historical novel set during an expedition to New France. Marguerite, heir to a fortune and raised in privilege, is orphaned and placed under the care of a volatile guardian who squanders her inheritance. When she is accused of betrayal during the expedition, she is brutally punished and abandoned alone on a small island. Stripped of her former life of wealth and fine clothing, Marguerite must contend with the harsh natural environment. As winter arrives and ice covers the island, she discovers a faith she had never previously needed. Inspired by the true story of a sixteenth-century woman, the novel follows her struggle for survival.
