Teacher, missionary, and activist, Miss Ruth fulfills many roles in America's last frontier. She does not always conform to society's expectations or norms. How does she handle the risks to her reputation or respond to the rumors and lies? How does she react to the accusations and betrayal?Sam Mitchell, Jr., editor of Sitka's newspaper, continues to delve into Miss Ruth's history. He is uncomfortable when this reveals issues in his own life, forcing him to confront them, especially his feelings for the lovely cheechako Alice Blakely.Will Sam take a lesson from Alaska's premier pioneer woman? Does he have the same courage as Miss Ruth?
