Light on Snow by Anita Shreve

I discovered Anita Shreve when reading The Pilot's Wife - one of my all time favorite books. I hesitated to read Light on Snow because the cover has a snow scene. I am not a winter person, and since it's summer, snow is the furthest thing from my mind. But I like the author, so I gave it a whirl. The book was enjoyable. A girl and her father go for a walk in the snowy woods and come across a newborn baby that has just been abandoned. They bring the baby to the hospital and are local heros. Their paths cross with that of the mother, and this meeting causes them to examine some of the difficulties in their own lives.
