The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon is a powerful historical fiction novel inspired by the true-life diary of midwife Martha Ballard.
Set in 1789 Maine, it follows Martha as she investigates the mysterious death of a man found frozen in the Kennebec River — a man accused of a violent crime months earlier. Through brutal winter and social prejudice, Martha’s pursuit of justice challenges the male-dominated legal system and exposes the power of one woman’s truth.
Blending mystery, courage, and history, Lawhon’s storytelling captures the resilience of women whose voices reshaped early America.
