I really enjoyed this and read through it quickly, anxious to see what would happen next. Mary grows up neglected by her father, who is bitter about his wifes death, and inadequatley raised or prepared for life by a well meaning but un-nurturing grandmother. She is married off at 17 to the first man who will have her. Mary seems to suffer from some mental instability and is driven over the edge by the death of her baby. Other details are meted out a little at a time throughout the story. After murdering her husband she is on the run from her two brothers-in-law who are hungry for vengeance. She manages to stay ahead of them incredibly, and somehow survives. She meets some very interesting characters along the way, and manages to learn quite a lot about survival in more ways than one. I loved this story and the fact that it made me really root for the murderess! GREAT!
