What to expect from THE FOURTH WIFE:
Hazel Russon's life in 1882 Utah territory is defined by three things: the Mormon church, polygamy, and the men who control both. She knows she's supposed to suppress her sinful dreams of a monogamous life with her sweetheart, and her desire for the freedom to play her beloved piano.
Commanded to become the fourth wife of a man she's never met, Hazel is reieved that Jacob Manwaring is attentive and handsome....however, all of Jacob's wives and children live in the same house: a dilapidated manor that fills Hazel with dread.
Hazel can't be sure if she has more to fear from the living-- including her mysterious husband-- or from a sinister presence that seems to animate the house itself...
“Some haunts go deeper than ghosts. Though set in the past, The Fourth Wife holds up a mirror to the present and dares us to look. A thrilling debut.” —Rachel Rueckert, author of If the Tide Turns and The Determined
Linda Hamilton is an author and historian who is currently completing her Master’s in history at Sam Houston State University with thesis on Mormon women in polygamy.
