Mrs. Mike

A moving love story set in the Canadian wilderness, Mrs. Mike is a classic tale that has enchanted millions of readers worldwide. It brings the fierce, stunning landscape of the Great North to life-and tenderly evokes the love that blossoms between Sergeant Mike Flannigan and beautiful young Katherine Mary O'Fallon. "Mrs. Mike" is one of the bravest, most sparkling and spirited real-life heroines who has ever appeared between the covers of a book. Kathy O'Fallon, a gently-reared, lovely, sixteen year-old Irish girl was sent far away from Boston to her uncle in Northwest Canada to regain her health. There she met Sergeant Mike Flannigan of the Mounted Police, six feet tall, with "eyes so blue you could swim in them." Kathy learned that being Mike's wife meant facing blizzards and grizzly bears, forest fires, spring floods and epidemics. She learned joy and heartbreak and the true, deep meaning of love and loyalty.
