"In this brave and passionate novel, Mary Dyer, a little-remembered woman of monumental importance to America's past, is at last given her due in fiction, nearly four hundred years after her story began. English Puritans fleeing persecution, Mary and her husband, William, arrive in the colony of Massachusetts Bay in 1635, where they are welcomed by the howling wolves in the night, the threat of Indian reprisals, and Boston governors who brutally enforce Puritan rule. Settlers seeking freedom in this wild land live in fear, but in Mary's friendship with outspoken religous dissident Anne Hutchinson she finds intellectual solace-beyond the toils of motherhood and domestic life--and the courage to stand up to the colonial magistrates. As one of America's first Quakers, Mary pushes her family, her faith and the magistrates themselves to the brink in pursuit of freedom. And in a final bold act she confronts the deepest cruelty of this new land and alters the course of a nation a century before its birth"--Back cover.
