Kate Willow Martin, Hero or Victim?

Growing up on a farm in a small town in Montana in the 1920-

1930's, Kate at the age of 20 years had more trauma in her life than

most women during their life-time. Would this trauma break her or

create in her a determination to succeed no matter what?

Winter's Gate is the story of Kate Willow Martin, her family,

and friends during the Great Depression as they live through the

aftermath of the many horrific secrets of the Martin family. Rape,

murder, suicide and more. How can one woman deal with all of this?
