Walking out on a demoralizing second marriage, Maggie Lloyd leaves Vancouver to work at a fishing lodge in the interior of British Columbia.

But the serenity of Maggies new surroundings is soon disturbed by the irrational jealousy of the lodge-keepers wife.

Restoring her own broken spirit, Maggie must also become a healer to others.

In this, she is supported by her eccentric friend, Nell Severance, whose pearl-handled revolver the Swamp Angel becomes Maggies ambiguous talisman and the novels symbolic core.Ethel Wilsons best-loved novel, Swamp Angel first appeared in 1954.

It remains an astute and powerful study of one womans integrity and of the redemptive power of compassion.From the Paperback edition.
