Blurb taken from back cover:
“On an icy winter night in an isolated house in rural Vermont, a seasoned midwife named Sibyl Danforth takes desperate measures to save a baby’s life. She performs an emergency cesarean section on a mother she believes has died of stroke. But what if Sibyl’s patient wasn’t dead—and Sibly inadvertently killed her?
“As Sibyl faces the antagonism of the law, the hostility of traditional doctors, and the accusations fo her own conscience, ‘Midwives’ engages, moves, and transfixes us as only the very best novels ever do.”
