The River Witch by Marjorie McIntyre. Circa 1955. First Edition.
“Cordelia Riley is the daughter of Michael Riley, the scrapping owner and captain of the steamboat "The Blue Teal" that ran the St. Louis-St Joseph route on the Missouri River. Cordelia was in love with Josiah, but was jealous of his attention to the bawdy Red Maude who had saved Josiah's life after an attack by bandits. Out of spite Cordelia married Pierre de Vries. They had a daughter whom Cordelia adored. When the daughter died Cordelia sunk into a depression that turned to hate. Ultimately her husband taught Cordelia the true meaning of love.” - Good Reads description
