It's 1864 in downtrodden Lowell, Massachusetts. The Civil Conflict has used its toll out - going out of the overall economy in ruin and its own ladies in dire straits. That's, until Asa Mercer happens on a peculiar, but providential, errand: he seeks high-minded women who can exert an elevating affect in Seattle, where there are ten men for each and every girl. Mail-order brides, yes, but of a certain caliber. Schoolmarmish Josephine, tough-as-nails Dovey, and pious perfectionist Sophronia see their chance to exchange their bleak leads for new lives. But the very troubles that sent them working from Lowell follow them to the muddy roadways of Seattle, and the friendships forged on the cross-country trek are examined at every move. Just when the trip seems to lead and then ruin, an encounter with a famous suffragist could be their salvation. But to survive both an untamed new surroundings and their pasts, they'll need all their power - and each other.
