"On a snowy evening in March, thirty-something Noelle Butterby is on her way back from an event at her old college when disaster strikes. With a blizzard closing off roads, she finds herself stranded, alone in her car, without food, drink, or a working charger for her phone. All seems lost until Sam Attwood, a handsome American stranger also trapped in a nearby car, knocks on her window and offers assistance. What follows is eight perfect hours together, until morning arrives and the roads finally clear. The two strangers part, positive they'll never see each other again but fate, it seems, has a different plan. As the two keep serendipitously bumping into one another, they begin to realize that perhaps there truly is no such thing as coincidence." --back cover.

This book is the first to present a vivid and accurate picture of the thousands of women who worked weeding the rice fields in northern Italy during the early part of the nineteenth century. It explores a wide range of issues including the political, economic, and social history of Italy; labor legislation; the role of the judicial system; the sexual division of labor; family structure; class conflict between the rural proletariat and the politically influential capitalist farmers; work-related diseases; internal migration of labor; and child labor. The author provides penetrating insights into the Socialist Party’s efforts to wrest women workers from the influence of the Catholic Church; the history of Italian feminism and the campaign for the vote; and finally, the workers’ opposition to Italy’s entrance into World War I. She analyzes the weeders’ relations with labor organizers; their desire to preserve their autonomy; and their decisions regarding labor actions; and she highlights similarities between the weeders’ experiences and those of other women workers and labor organizers in Europe and the U. S..

Sergeant Bill Smithe was going to die. He knew it. The madman who kidnapped his baby granddaughter knew it. He just hoped he could save six-month-old Claire before it happened. Bill hadn’t known when he locked Tom Lockman up for murder all those years ago that his crazy brother would eventually try to get revenge. It wasn’t just that Charles wanted Tom released. No. They both knew Charles’ real goal was to kill Bill. If he simply wanted Tom released, he would have given Bill more than eight hours to do it. As if Charles’ short timeline wasn’t enough, Claire has diabetes, and won’t make it through the eight hours without her insulin shot. Bill must call in his entire police force to search the town and keep the rest of his family safe. The only silver lining is a frail woman named Jenny, Tom’s wife. She’s with Charles, but Bill has a feeling she’s not there willingly, and may be the only thing keeping Claire safe. During Bill’s hourly phone calls with Charles, Jenny is able to secretly provide him with information about their whereabouts. The problem is the information is cryptic, and Bill doesn’t know if he’ll find them in time.
