| The Daughter's Walk: A Novel by Jane KirkpatrickWhat happens: In 1896, in order to win money from the fashion industry, two women attempt to walk 3,500 miles alone from Spokane to New York City wearing new clothing that doesn't require corsets -- and it changes to course of their lives forever.
Based on a true story: This atmospheric novel depicts Helga Estby and her 18-year-old daughter Clara's walk to save their family farm.
Read this next: For a more lighthearted look at women's rights a few years later, try Robin Lee Hatcher's Catching Katie. |

What happens: Charlotte corrals both Willow and Corbin to help her investigate, which brings them closer to each other, and puts them in danger.
