Corey Sifter becomes a yard boy for a powerful family in the
early 1970s. The patriarch, Liam
Metarey, campaigns for United States senator Henry Bonwiller, who he hopes will
become the next president. Everything is
going well until the senator’s bad choices catch up with him and a campaign
worker is found frozen to death in an orchard.
This stunning novel goes between different time periods with ease. Corey is an unreliable narrator at times with
his words clouded by his respect for the Metareys. Not all the questions are answered and the
reader must make up their own mind as to what they think really happened that
cold night. Check out America America @the library!
