Description

In the waning days of World War II, Sheilagh Fielding makes her way to a deserted island off the coast of Newfoundland.

But she soon comes to suspect another presence: that of a man known only as her Provider, who has shadowed her for twenty years.Against the backdrop of Newfoundland's history and landscape, Fielding is a compelling figure.

Taller than most men and striking in spite of her crippled leg, she is both eloquent and subversively funny.

Her newspaper columns exposing the foibles and hypocrisies of her native city, St.

John's, have made many powerful enemies for her, chief among them the man who fathered her children-twins-when she was fourteen.

Only her Provider, however, knows all of Fielding's secrets.

Reading group guide included.
