He writes a letter to a matchmaker in the east, hoping to find just the right someone. When Ana first meets William, she finds him to be a kind man, but very quiet. They marry as soon as she arrives, and they gradually get to know one another. But when mines start collapsing, they must figure out who is causing the problems.
