B. J. Hoff brings us an inspiring Irish-American saga of pain and triumph in the 1800s. Terese Sheridan, desperate to escape the poverty and tragedy of Ireland, traps herself and the man she loves in a web of deception that will have consequences for generations to come. Jack Kane, a rogue newspaperman, builds an empire from his youthful dreams and the kind of reckless courage that makes him a legend in nineteenth-century New York City. Hoff's magnificent epic brings to life one of the most colorful, dramatic eras in American history and weaves a story of love and faith that spans an entire ocean.
