“The Widows kept me on the edge of my seat. Montgomery is a masterful storyteller.” —Lee Martin, author of Pulitzer Prize-Finalist The Bright Forever Inspired by the true story of Ohio’s first female sheriff, Jess Montgomery’s powerful, lyrical debut is the story of two women who take on murder and corruption at the heart of their community. Kinship, Ohio, 1924: When Lily Ross learns that her husband, Daniel, the town’s widely respected sheriff, has been killed while transporting a prisoner in an apparent accident, she vows to seek the truth about his death. Hours after his funeral, a stranger appears at her door. Marvena Whitcomb, a coal miner’s widow, is unaware that Daniel has died and begs to speak with him about her missing daughter. From miles away but worlds apart, Lily’s and Marvena’s lives collide as they realize that Daniel was perhaps not the man that either of them believed him to be. *BONUS CONTENT: This edition of The Widows includes a new introduction from the author and a discussion guide "The Widows is a gripping, beautifully written novel about two women avenging the murder of the man they both loved."—Hallie Ephron, New York Times bestselling author of You'll Never Know, Dear "Jess Montgomery's gorgeous writing can be just as dark and terrifying as a subterranean cave when the candle is snuffed out, but her prose can just as easily lead you to the surface for a gasp of air and a glimpse of blinding, beautiful sunlight. This is a powerful novel: a tale of loss, greed, and violence, and the story of two powerful women who refuse to stand down."—Wiley Cash, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Ballad, A Land More Kind than Home, and This Dark Road to Mercy "[A] flinty, heartfelt mystery that sings of hawks and history, of coal mines and the urgent fight for social justice."—Julia Keller, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Bone on Bone

In early American society, one’s identity was determined in large part by gender. The ways in which men and women engaged with their communities were generally not equal: married women fell under the legal control of their husbands, who handled all negotiations with the outside world, as well as many domestic interactions. The death of a husband enabled women to transcend this strict gender divide. Yet, as a widow, a woman occupied a third, liminal gender in early America, performing an unusual mix of male and female roles in both public and private life. With shrewd analysis of widows’ wills as well as prescriptive literature, court appearances, newspaper advertisements, and letters, The Widows’ Might explores how widows were portrayed in early American culture, and how widows themselves responded to their unique role. Using a comparative approach, Vivian Bruce Conger deftly analyzes how widows in colonial Massachusetts, South Carolina, and Maryland navigated their domestic, legal, economic, and community roles in early American society.

Five women. Five widows. Bound together by an unthinkable tragedy—the discovery that their husbands were all entangled in a massive, meticulously crafted Ponzi scheme. Their shared loss ignites a flame of righteous anger, transforming their grief into a powerful force that propels them towards an audacious act of rebellion. This is not a tale of meek acceptance or quiet resignation. This is the story of "The Widow’s Pact," an alliance forged in the crucible of betrayal, a clandestine operation born from despair and fueled by a thirst for justice. These are not damsels in distress; these are women who, stripped bare by their husbands' actions and the subsequent financial ruin, refuse to become victims. They leverage their unique skills and knowledge – from accounting prowess to technological expertise – to craft a plan so daring, so audacious, that it could either restore their lives or plunge them even deeper into the abyss. Their journey is fraught with danger, deception, and the unsettling realization that not everyone who claims to be an ally will remain one. The path to reclaiming what was stolen from them is riddled with moral ambiguities, forcing them to question their own values, their beliefs, and the lengths they are willing to go to achieve justice. Their story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the enduring strength of female camaraderie, and the transformative power of righteous anger. Prepare yourselves to be swept away by a thrilling tale of suspense, betrayal, and the extraordinary lengths women will go to protect themselves, each other, and reclaim their futures. The game is afoot, and the stakes have never been higher.

The idea for this book was birthed during a time when several dear souls in our local congregation lost their spouses. Seeing a real need for a Bible-based grief support group, this author asked her pastors and church family to pray that GOD would inspire and help her write a curriculum which would ‘marry’ what happens to the grieving soul physically, emotionally, and spiritually with the restorative power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Each of the seventeen lessons is designed to be shared within a support group setting where the bereaved will learn that what they are experiencing is not unusual, it is universal to all mankind since the beginning of time. Not only does the grieving reader find out they are not ‘crazy’ or losing their mind, but they are reminded that GOD cares about them as an individual and will speak into their pain His healing word.

In the summer of 1588, Europe waits with bated breath for King Philip of Spain to launch his mighty armada against England. Everyone except Lady Alice Trumpington, whose father wants her wed to the highest bidder. She doesn't want to be a wife, she wants to be widow; a rich one, and the sooner, the better. So she marries an elderly viscount, gives him a sleeping draught, and spends her wedding night with Thomas Clarady, her best friend and Francis Bacon's assistant. The next morning, they find the viscount murdered in his bed and they're both locked into the Tower. Lady Alice appeals to the Andromache Society, the widows’ guild led by Francis Bacon's formidable aunt, Lady Russell. They charge Bacon with getting the new widow out of prison and identifying the real murderer. He soon learns the viscount wasn’t an isolated case. Someone is murdering Catholics in London and taking advantage of armada fever to mask the crimes. The killer seems to have privy information — from someone close to the Privy Council? The investigation takes Francis from the mansions along the Strand to the rack room under the Tower. Pulled and pecked by a coven of demanding widows, Francis struggles to maintain his reason and his courage to see through the fog of war and catch the killer.
