Talking Location With Joanna O’Donoghue – WORLD
The Mill River Recluse
Location(s): Vermont
Genre(s): Fiction, Romance
Era(s): Modern
Disfigured by the blow of an abusive husband, the widow Mary McAllister has spent almost sixty years secluded in a white marble mansion overlooking the town of Mill River, Vermont. Her links to the outside world are few: the mail, an elderly priest, and a bedroom window with a view of the town below.
Most longtime residents of Mill River consider the marble house and its occupant peculiar, and few of them have ever seen Mary. But three newcomers – a police officer and his daughter and a new schoolteacher – are curious about the reclusive old woman. Only the town priest truly knows the Mill River recluse, and the secret she keeps… a secret that, once revealed, will change the town, and the lives of its residents, forever.
