Synopsis

Winter closes in on a valley in northern New England where history is about to repeat itself. The Allen family farm is nearly empty. Only Eddie, the youngest son, remains, living with his family’s ghosts near the woods he loves. In those woods he meets Jeanne Delaney, a girl he’s known all his life, now turning into a woman. This is not the first time that Eddie’s people have come into contact with Jeanne’s, though. Their families are already tied together by a violent past.

A story of survival and humanity set in early 1900s New England. Miller explores themes of colonialism, disability and rural life on the fringes of society. Cold Grace is a dark historical novel defined by its frozen landscape. Both revenge tragedy and coming of age story, it tells of an isolated community haunted by the ghost of its own violence.

“An unforgettably heartbreaking tale of love and family. Highly recommended.” LoveReading

“It was as if Miller whispered the secrets of this isolated community directly into my ear, so vivid were the voices of her characters.” Sophie Buchaillard, author of Assimilation and This is Not Who We Are

“Drew me into a world I simply didn’t want to leave.” Kathy Biggs, author of Scrap and The Luck
