520 8 _aIn northern Iceland, 1829, Agnes Magn�usd�ttir is condemned to death for her part in the brutal murder of her lover. Agnes is sent to wait out her final months on the farm of district office J�n J�nsson, his wife and their two daughters. Horrified to have a convicted murderer in their midst, the family avoid contact with Agnes. Only T�ti, the young assistant priest appointed Agnes's spiritual guardian, is compelled to try to understand her. As the year progresses and the hardships of rural life force the household to work side by side, Agnes's story begins to emerge and with it the family's terrible realization that all is not as they had assumed.
