This was my first time reading any of Ivan Doig's books. He is an excellent story teller and his specialty is about Montana. This particular book was dated in the early 1900's in Marias Coulee township. A recent widower sends out an ad for an housekeeper after losing his wife. She comes to his home along with her brother. Events takes place that involves Paul Milliron and his three young sons and the housekeeper and her brother. There are scenes that make you shake your head in disbelieve and others that make you chuckle. The end of the book gives you a surprise concerning the housekeeper and the brother. I really enjoyed the writing and recommend this book.
