COUNTRY BUSINESSMAN SEEKS RELIABLE WIFE.
COMPELLED BY PRACTICAL REASONS.
REPLY BY LETTER.
Rural Wisconsin, 1907. In the bitter cold, Ralph Truitt, a successful industrialist, stands alone on a train platform waiting for the woman who answered his newspaper advertisement.
But when Catherine steps of the train she's not the woman that that Ralph is expecting. She is both complex and devious. And, haunted by a terrible past, she is motivated by greed.
Catherine's plan is simple. She will win Ralph's devotion. Later, she will leave him as a wealthy woman.
What Catherine has not counted on however is that Ralph might have plans of his own for his new wife . . .
