About This Book

The trials and triumphs of the mythically charged Piper family sweep us from the haunted Cape Breton Island through the battlefields of World War One, to the emerging jazz scene of New York City. James, a father of intelligence and immense ambition, Materia, his Lebanese child-bride, and their daughters, Kathleen, a budding opera Diva, Frances, the incorrigible liar and hell-bent bad girl, Mercedes, obsessive Catholic and protector of the flock, and Lily, the adored invalid who takes us on a quest for truth and redemption--these vivid, unforgettable characters will resonate long after the last page is turned.
