DESCRIPTION:This month, we are reading The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon.&q
 uot;Maine, 1789: When the Kennebec River freezes, entombing a man in the i
 ce, Martha Ballard is summoned to examine the body and determine cause of 
 death. As a midwife and healer, she is privy to much of what goes on behin
 d closed doors in Hallowell. Her diary is a record of every birth and deat
 h, crime and debacle that unfolds in the close-knit community. Months earl
 ier, Martha documented the details of an alleged rape committed by two of 
 the town’s most respected gentlemen—one of whom has now been found dea
 d in the ice. But when a local physician undermines her conclusion, declar
 ing the death to be an accident, Martha is forced to investigate the shock
 ing murder on her own.Over the course of one winter, as the trial nears, a
 nd whispers and prejudices mount, Martha doggedly pursues the truth. Her d
 iary soon lands at the center of the scandal, implicating those she loves,
  and compelling Martha to decide where her own loyalties lie.&quot;
