When "'til death do us..." means murder, will justice --- that
fluid-like concept --- seek its own level? Nineteen-eighteen was a
watershed year for 6-year-old Walter Dunbar and 13-year-old Ruth
Wilson. That year's seminal events in their childhoods ultimately
bring them together as young adults to share a lifetime ---
dedicated to strong moral and family values --- through a half
century of shifting societal values and standards.
Nineteen-eighteen also marked the birth of Eleanor Riggs whose
nature and upbringing combine to create an unprincipled and
manipulative self-serving woman --- the embodiment of evil --- who
insinuates herself into Walter's life. As it sweeps across the
landscapes of eastern New England, New York's Southern Tier,
Maryland, and eastern Pennsylvania, the saga of these three
individuals' lives is set against a tapestry of historical events
and shifting cultural and societal attitudes of 20th Century
America. This tale of two families with a slice of history and a
slice of mystery will appeal to readers who enjoyed John
Steinbeck's East of Eden.
