Synopsis
In the harsh wilderness of colonial Massachusetts, Martha Allen works as a servant in her cousin's household, taking charge and locking wills with everyone. Thomas Carrier labors for the family and is known both for his immense strength and size and mysterious past. The two begin a courtship that suits their independent natures, with Thomas slowly revealing the story of his part in the English Civil War. But in the rugged new world they inhabit, danger is ever present, whether it be from the assassins sent from London to kill the executioner of Charles I or the wolves-in many forms-who hunt for blood. A love story and a tale of courage, The Wolves of Andover confirms Kathleen Kent's ability to craft powerful stories of family from colonial history.

From the Back Cover
In colonial Massachussetts, a young woman named Martha Allen is forced to take work as a servant in her cousin's home. Unwed and, at 19, near spinsterhood, Martha takes charge of the neglected home, locking wills with everyone around her--including a hired worker whose stubbornness matches her own. Thomas Carrier is dogged by an aura of dangerousness and rumors about his past as a soldier in England. Martha gradually comes to know him and hear pieces of his story, and her interest and trust in him grows. As they begin to fall in love, back in London Charles II assembles a crew of assassins to sail to the New World. Their mission is to hunt down and kill the man who executed King Charles I. . . . Both a love story and a story of courage and independence, THE WOLVES OF ANDOVER proves Kent's ability to craft powerful stories of family from the dramatic background of America's earliest days.
