The Falls (Broché)

A man climbs over the railings and plunges into Niagara Falls. He's a newlywed, and his bride has been left behind in the honeymoon suite. For two weeks Ariah waits for news of her husband's recovered body. During her vigil, an unlikely new love unfolds - a wealthy lawyer is transfixed by her strange, otherworldly gaze. And so, in the 1950s, it all begins. From this cataclysmic event unfurls a drama of parents and children; of secrets, sins, lawsuits, murder and, eventually, redemption. The Falls is about the American family in crisis - and America itself.
