Fiction | Historical
From wartime Italy to the American West, Jonathan Hull takes
readers on a heartrending passage through the lives of three
families torn by history and bound by an unshakeable -- and
at times forbidden -- devotion. Ryan Brooks never forgot the powerful hands that pulled him
from the wreckage of his parents' station wagon that summer
in 1960 when he was ten and his childhood came to a fiery
end during a family vacation. Thirty years later, Ryan
returns to Wyoming to thank the dying rancher for saving the
life he is still trying to be worthy of. The chilling sight
of Mike O'Donnell's deeply scarred hands is just the
beginning of Ryan's journey as he soon finds himself caught
between the rancher's captivating -- and married --
daughter, Shannon, and his mysterious Italian wife, Alessandra. When Mike's deathbed confession sets Ryan on a search for
the truth of what really happened the day his parents died,
he unearths a long-buried secret that leads to a mountain
cave in Northern Italy and Alessandra's dangerous love
affair with a haunted young German soldier. As past and
present collide in an intricately woven story of love and
redemption across generations and continents, Ryan discovers
that the answers he seeks are inscribed deep in the hearts
of those whose lives -- and courage -- he must measure
against his own.
