book will forever change the way you think about farmers and family...   At twenty-one, Theresa Weir falls in love with Adrian Curtis, the pride of a prominent local family whose lives and orchard are said to be cursed. Married after only three months, young Theresa finds life with Adrian on the farm far more difficult and dangerous than she expected. Rejected by her husband's family as an outsider, she slowly learns about the isolated world of farming even as she falls more deeply in love with her husband, a man she at first hardly knew.   In an outcome that reflects the haunting realities of the landmark book SILENT SPRING, the increasingly dangerous chemicals used on farms begins to take a toll on the land and the people who tend it. The couple's fragile love will be tested as Theresa and Adrian fight to defend ground that has been the family for generations.
