Are the women mad? Or is it her husband, in the wake of the tragedy, whose grip on sanity has become desperately tenuous? Meanwhile, Emily finds herself wondering about the women in this sparsely populated White Mountain village – self-proclaimed herbalists – and their interest in her fifth-grade daughters. The body count? Thirty-nine – a coincidence not lost on Chip when he discovers the number of bolts in that basement door.

Together they hope to rebuild their lives there after Chip, an airline pilot, has to ditch his 70-seat regional jet in Lake Champlain after double engine failure.
