Publisher's summary

In 1903 a mysterious, desperate young woman flees alone across the west, one quick step ahead of the law. She has just become a widow by her own hand.

Two vengeful brothers and a pack of bloodhounds track her across the western wilderness. She is 19 years old and half mad. Gil Adamson's extraordinary novel opens in heart-pounding midflight and propels the listener through a gripping road trip with a twist - the steely outlaw in this story is a grief-struck young woman. Along the way she encounters characters of all stripes - unsavoury, wheedling, greedy, lascivious, self-reliant and occasionally generous and trustworthy. Part historical novel, part Gothic tale and part literary Western, The Outlander is an original and unforgettable listen.

A Crime in the Canadian Frontier

At the turn of the 20th century, a young (& newly) widow flees into the Canadian wilds to escape her brothers-in-law, who seek justice for their brother's death. His murderer is his wife.

This story follows a young woman's journey as she attempts to escape a life she did not expect to live. Along the way, she learns her true strength of survival & how to live with a crime she cannot truly explain why she committed it.

Read along as I listened to the Audible recording. Great narration, gripping imagery, & amazing additions of historical events.
