Abbott's Reach

Ardeana Hamlin's now-classic Pink Chimneys, set in nineteenth-century Maine, centered around a notorious Bangor brothel and told the story of the resilient Fanny, her daughter Elizabeth, and Maude, a midwife. Abbott's Reach updates the lives of that unforgettable cast of characters and introduces a new leading lady, Elizabeth's daughter M. M is a headstrong, emotional woman about to go to sea with her husband, setting the stage for an exciting tale of romance, adventure, and family strife.
