For every family secret, Elsie Finch covets the truth.
Consequences certainly come with being an heir of the Finch family estate, but consequences not even the parents contemplated.
In their personal chaos, Richard and Gail Finch design their estate to carry ramifications for misplaced loyalties, but when a third generation aims for the cache, someone is expendable. Who wins this long game?
Untying the family saga with blistering retaliations, someone must pay for the past.
Richard and Gail's unscrupulous schemes spill across the geography of San Francisco Bay, Phoenix Arizona, Oklahoma City, finally slipping into the shadow of the Rockies.
Certain poetry transforms Elsie's grief when honor is offered to the brave.
If you appreciated Hillbilly Elegy, you'll love this!
