Ruth Bellamy had almost nothing left—just a small homestead, her young nephew, and a flock of hens. While the people of Pine Hollow laughed at her fears, she quietly saved hundreds of eggs for winter, carefully preserving each one underground.
Then a brutal blizzard buried the freight road and food began running dangerously low. Suddenly, the same winter egg stockpile everyone mocked became something the entire town desperately needed.
But when a powerful merchant tries to buy every egg she has, Ruth must choose between protecting her own future and helping families who once doubted her.
A moving story of preparation, sacrifice, compassion, and the surprising power of community.
