Poplar Hill is a gripping tale of survival, moral dilemmas, and the enduring spirit of one remarkable woman. In the midst of an unforgiving ice storm, Kitty Stevenson-a woman shaped by the Great Depression and scarred by the horrors of Nazi Germany-faces a life-threatening heart attack in the isolation of rural Canada. With her neighbors rallying to save her, Kitty reflects on a life of extraordinary wealth, devastating poverty, and a war-torn past that culminates in a haunting revelation. In the end, only one story remains, a tale of murder, and the brutal truth that "It was war, damn it, it was war."
