书籍简介:
For the first time since "Handling Sin," a riveting novel of love, secrets, and the mysterious bonds of family, from master author Michael Malone. On her seventh birthday, Annie's conartist father left her behind at his boyhood home, then he raced out of her life. Years later, Annie, now a top Navy jet pilot, returns home on her 26th birthday. But everything changes when Jack calls to say he is dying, and needs her to fly to St. Louis to bring him the airplane he gave her the day he left. And if she does, he will give her the one thing she always wanted, that he always lied to her about the name of her mother. "The Four Corners of the Sky" is a novel of love, sacrifice, and the inexplicable bonds that hold families together. Michael Malone brings these rich characters to life as only he can, evoking the unspoken motivations that drive people to define who they are and break out of those bonds when the call of love comes. PRAISE FOR MICHAEL MALONE: "Malone… delights the reader with his witty eye for the kind of detail that proclaims with humor and confidence, 'This is true '" Los Angeles Times Book Review "Malone shows a knack for colorful characters, snappy dialogue and tragicomic human foibles." Salt Lake Tribune "Brilliant and entertaining… Wonderfully shrewd… Mr. Malone's characters have dimension and scope." New York Times Book Review "Mr. Malone peoples his fiction with large, quirky casts, and his readers come to know not only what these characters eat, drink, chew, whistle, sing, listen to, read, hang on their walls, and dream, but – most importantly – what they believe." New York Times Book Review
