From Ethan Canin, bestselling author of The Palace Thief, comes a stunning novel, set in a small town during the Nixon era, about America and family, politics and tragedy, and the impact of fate on a young man's life. Corey Sifter, the son of working-class parents, becomes a yard boy on the grand estate of the powerful Metarey family. Taken in by the family's patriarch, Corey soon finds himself in the midst of a complex tangle in which loyalty, politics, and gratitude conflict with morality and love.
