FROM THE PUBLISHER
They are the Pipers of Cape Breton Island -- a family steeped in lies and unspoken truths that reach out from the past, forever mindful of the tragic secret that could shatter the family to its foundations.
Chronicling five generations of this eccentric clan, Fall On Your Knees follows four remarkable sisters whose lives are filled with driving ambition, inescapable family bonds, and forbidden love. Their experiences will take them from their stormswept homeland, across the battlefields of World War I, to the freedom and independence of Jazz-era New York City.
Compellingly written, running the literary gamut from menacingly dark to hilariously funny, this is an epic saga of one family's trials and triumphs in a world of sin, guilt, and redemption.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
RELEASE NOTES:
Duplicate copy, so I am releasing this one.
I have very mixed reactions to this book. Parts I found wonderful, but there were some deeply disturbing parts as well- at least for me. There are just some subjects I don't do well with, but that's my own quirk, not the fault of the author. The author has a great style and ability to tell a story-- a little along the lines of Anita Shreve or Margaret Atwood.
