Guardian Bookshop Notes:

For fans of Cormac McCarthy, this is a visceral novel set in the aftermath of the American Civil War, which has much to say about own our times. From the author of "The Housekeeper", which was longlisted for the Orange Prize.

Publisher's description:

Abigail Buwell is not willing to live in the last military outpost on the frontier's hostile edge. Only Major Robert Cutter, the commander into whose hands she is delivered, hears her words. Abigail views her new life as captivity. Alone and pregnant, she is watched over night and day by the beloved blue roan horse on which she rode back.
