    About this ebook

    Montreal, 1740.  As the French and the English battle each other for control of North America, Louise Demarillac struggles for independence from a husband and a father whose demands on her are squeezing the joy from her life.  When the English invade Montreal and torch the city, Louise's family - including her five-year-old son - must flee for their lives.  To find them, Louise must venture into the American wilderness, where she fashions a new life that gives her the freedom she craves - but threatens to tear her family apart.

      THIS IS what you think your mother’s remains will look like. The ash will be black, like all that soot in the fireplace. It will be heavy, like wet sand. There will not be too much of it. It will fit in a small urn with intricate designs on the borde
