No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
While on their way to the Galapagos Islands, Daniel and Nancy are involved in a freak airplane accident. For a brief second, Daniel instinctively chooses to save himself instead of the mother of his child. Although he goes back to save her, and eventually performs a heroic act that rescues her and others, this momentary betrayal throws their relationship and their lives into a tailspin. In a parallel story, Danielβs great-grandfather struggles with loyalty, honor, and love during WWI. Multiple mysteries interweave and unravel as three generations of men try to answer questions about faith, God, and war in this suspenseful and unusual novel. --Marta Segal Block
