To survive the bitter struggles of the Great Depression, folks did what they had to do to get by. In 1936, in a small rural town in western Ohio, a desperate stranger knocks on the door late one night. What he has to do upheaves the lives of two young boys. Complicated circumstances wrench the boys apart, hurl them back together, and challenge their brotherly bonds. Just when they think they've regained their footing, the Japanese bomb Pearl Harbor. The United States enters World War II, singeing the delicate fibers of their connection. The love of a feisty, no-nonsense mother could be the spark that can salvage their link to one another. Or it may be the fuel which leaves their relationship in ashes. In this prequel to Unveiled, discover the origins of the feud between the Loftons and the MacFaddens. [334 pages]
