A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'Powerful and provocative' Paula McLain
'Beautiful, engrossing, heart-breaking' Rachel Rhys 'Monumental in
a way that few novels dare attempt' Washington Post The Miltons are
a powerful old New York family - the kind of family that used to
run the world. And in 1935, they still do. Kitty and Ogden Milton
seem to have it all: an elegant apartment on the Upper East Side,
two beautiful little boys, a love everyone envies. When a tragedy
befalls them, Ogden comforts Kitty the only way he knows how - they
go sailing, picnic on a small island off the coast of Maine, and
buy it. For generations the Miltons of Crockett Island revel in a
place that is entirely their own. But it's 1959, and the world is
changing: Ogden's firm hire a Jewish man, Len Levy, who earns the
admiration of not only his boss, but his boss's beautiful young
daughter. When Len and his friend visit the island, the Milton's
principles and prejudices are challenged like never before. At the
dawn of the 21st century, the family money has run dry, and the
island is up for sale. Returning for one last visit, Kitty's
granddaughter uncovers disturbing evidence about her family's
wealth - and realizes she is on the verge of finally understanding
the silences that seemed to hover just below the surface of her
family all her life. 'Thought-provoking and propulsive...Welcome to
old money, new heartbreak and big secrets' New York Times Book
