A New Flower in the Yukon - Paperback

by Sharon Poppen (Author)

Malie learned early what it meant to owe a man.

When her parents died, the debt passed to her-collected not in money, but in silence and submission. She survived by becoming valuable. She endured by becoming numb. And when the cost finally became too high, she ran.

North. Past borders. Past the life that claimed her.

In the Yukon, Malie finds refuge behind a bar and under the protection of a woman who asks no questions. One night, a stranger from the past thanks her-for nothing more than being human. His was the first kindness Malie had known.

But escape is never clean. The man she fled still counts what he believes she owes him, and each day she stays gone, someone else pays the price.

That price may be the one that changes everything.
