Summary:
"The nameless narrator of the mesmerizing tale and her lover, Marya, have left their cozy life together in San Francisco for the wilds of Montana. Marya's Aunt Rebecca has died, leaving Marya five million dollars on the condition that Marya live in her house for a year. But the house is both remote and unwelcoming -- it's stuffed with icons of the Blessed Virgin, ceramic images of female saints, and hidden relics like an ancient nun's habit, a shining tangle of red-gold human hair, and a blood-spattered wedding dress. What drama has been played out in the house? And what is its legacy? Our narrator is determined to find out." -- Publisher's description.
