In the harsh winter of 1789, the Kennebec River in Maine holds a grim secret - the body of Joshua Burgess, a respected captain turned corpse, trapped in ice as if nature itself had passed judgment. His death sets in motion a remarkable story centered on Martha Ballard, a midwife whose steady hands have delivered over a thousand babies without losing a single mother. Martha's world is one where women's voices are routinely silenced, yet through her diary - a meticulous record spanning decades - she performs an act of quiet rebellion, documenting the births, deaths, and daily struggles that history would otherwise forget. What makes Martha extraordinary isn't just her medical skill but her unwavering determination to speak truth in a society designed to ignore it. When justice fails the women of Hallowell, Martha stands as both healer and witness, navigating a precarious balance between her oath to preserve life and her fierce commitment to protecting the vulnerable.
