Two girls, left alone in their cabin in the woods when their mother went out months earlier to get medical help for their younger sister, find their way out of the forest when a strange man shows up at their cabin. They wind up on the doorstep of a local woman, who thinks her husband is cheating on her. When she takes them in, her life turns upside down, but not necessarily in the way she feared.
The Stillwater Girls, by Minka Kent, is an interesting tale with one whopper of a twist at the end, one that is, frankly, unbelievable. Still, prior to that odd turn of events, this was another enjoyable effort from Kent. I may continue to keep my eyes open for more of her work in the future.
