About this audiobook
'This feminist Western will keep you on the edge of your seat' Reese Witherspoon
'A real treat' Jenny Zhang
'Shares concerns with The Handmaid's Tale and The Crucible but is distinctly itself' The i
'Contains basically everything I want in a book' Vox
In the year of our Lord 1894, I became an outlaw.
Ada loves her broad-shouldered, bashful husband and her job as a midwife. But her luck is running out. It is a woman's duty to have a child, to replace those lost in the Great Flu. Unable to get pregnant, Ada must flee from a town where barren women are hanged as witches.
When Ada joins the notorious Hole in the Wall Gang, a band of outlaws planning to create a haven for women outcast from society, she must decide if she's willing to risk her life for the possibility of a new kind of future for them all.
