Romance Suspense
Tenacious Vermont farmer Ruth Willmarth has survived tough
times before, but when news of mad cow disease spreads,
she can't help but worry about her own resiliency — and
her own small herd. Two healthy looking calves she
recently bought are under "suspicion" by officials. The fear factor rises when Ruth's farm becomes the
temporary home to a small horde of Irish visitors,
relatives of her lover, Colm. One woman in the group, an
abused wife, may have actually contracted the human form
of the dreaded disease during a recent hospital stay. Now
she has disappeared. When her husband is found dead in the
river, strangled with horse reins, a panicking community
assumes a mad-cow-disease-riddled killer is on the loose.
But Ruth, able to discern truth from terror, looks
elsewhere, finding twisted secrets, greed, manipulation
and more death, as she tries to hold on to her sanity, and
her farm.
