About This Book

A rural farming family faces foreclosure after the patriarch secretly mortgages the property to raise money that was later used to assist another man, and the son-in-law refuses help when the mortgage is called. Household tensions erupt as the mother reproaches the father for arranging daughters' marriages and driving the girls away. One daughter, proud and determined, returns in defiance, confronts family silences, protects her younger sister, and offers forgiveness to her mother while preparing to investigate and unravel the financial and moral wrongs that threaten the household.
