“Sensationally good psychological suspense—I loved this book.”

“If you only read one thriller this year, make it The Marsh King’s Daughter. It’s sensational.”

—Clare Mackintosh, New York Times bestselling author of I Let You Go

“Brilliant … in its balance of emotional patience and chapter-by-chapter suspense, The Marsh King’s Daughter is about as good as a thriller can be.”

—The New York Times Book Review

The Marsh King’s Daughter is the story of a woman who must risk everything to hunt down the dangerous man who shaped her past and threatens to steal her future: her father.

Author Karen Dionne drew heavily on her experiences during the 1970s in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula to write the book, when she and her husband lived in a tent with their six-week-old daughter while they built a tiny cabin. Karen carried water from a stream, made wild apple jelly over a campfire (and defended it against marauding raccoons), sampled wild foods such as cattail heads and milkweed pods, and washed nappies in a bucket (which Karen says is every bit as nasty as it sounds). She enjoys nature photography and lives with her husband in Detroit’s northern suburbs.
