Bookroo's summary
In 1743, young Marguerite Ledoux arrives in Maine as an indentured servant, facing a family that sees her as no better than the looming threat of nearby tribes. As tensions rise, Marguerite's resilience and cleverness challenge their perceptions. Can she navigate this hostile world and prove her worth, or will the dangers of the frontier consume her? Her journey is one of survival, courage, and unexpected alliances.
