For the last three years, Ruth has lived on the outskirts of “polite society” after her son was blamed for the deaths of three boys, whose fathers have now, also, mysteriously gone missing. Ruth buried herself in her home life, caring for her mother and other children, but now the loss of her husband is the straw that breaks the camel’s back. She’s at serious risk of going down for the third time when she meets Milk Raymond, a man who came home from war to find his stepson alone, after his mother walked out on him. Milk and Ruth, two lost souls struggling to find answers turn to each other for help, but what they uncover is worse than they could have ever imagined. I will never look at Vermont the same way after reading this creepy book!
