In 1929, newlyweds George and Serena Pemberton leave Boston for the mountains of North Carolina, where they want to establish a lumber empire. Serena is fresh to the mountains, but George has been in the camp long enough to father an illicit kid. Despite this, Serena quickly proves she is a match for any male, managing crews, pursuing rattlesnakes, and even saving her husband's life in the woods. All who fall out of favor are mercilessly killed or defeated by this lord and queen of the forests together. However, Serena decides to kill the boy George fathered without her when she finds out she will never get pregnant. As the plot progresses toward its devastating conclusion, Serena begins to think that George is shielding his illegitimate family, which causes the mother and child to start fighting for their lives. This leads to the breakdown of the Pembertons' strong and passionate marriage.

Rash's brilliant handling of brutality and beauty results in a gripping book that, at its heart, is about love that is both betrayed and respected.
