    Ep03 - The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon

    In Episode 03, Jon and Kristy discuss The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon. This historical fiction novel is set in 1789 in Hallowell, Maine. The story follows the life of Martha Ballard, a 54-year-old midwife who delivered more than 1,000 babies and never lost a mother. However, Martha finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation, providing a glimpse into life during the late 1700s, when women were expected to be seen but not heard. They cover their favorite characters and scenes from the book, household chores in the 1700s, and who they would cast if the book were to be adapted for film or television!
