When a hunter disappears, his daughters must establish their own rules for survival.

Anneli Jordahl's premise places independence under pressure rather than presenting it as an uncomplicated liberation. The sisters must decide which inherited habits help them and which confine them. Choose this for fiction about family authority, women's autonomy and the uneasy boundary between self-reliance and isolation.

WHO IS IT FOR?

For readers drawn to character, language and the tensions within ordinary lives.
