"Joe Keller and Herbert Deever, partners in a machine shop during the war, turned out defective airplane parts, causing the deaths of many men. Deever was sent to prison, while Keller escaped punishment and went on to make a lot of money.

In a work of tremendous power, a love affair between Keller's son, Chris, and Ann Deever, Herbert's daughter; the bitterness of George Keller, who returns from the war to find his father in prison and his father's partner free; and the reaction of a son to his father's guilt escalate toward a climax of electrifying intensity."--BOOK JACKET.

Work Description

Set during World War II, a troubled father and son know that a second son will never return from the war, even though the mother believes her missing boy will soon come home. But such turmoil only conceals greater anguish as suspicion falls on the father for hiding a devastating secret.
