The Author Of The #1 New York Times Bestseller Beautiful Ruins Delivers Another “Literary Miracle” (Npr)—A Propulsive, Richly Entertaining Novel About Two Adventure-Seeking Brothers, The Enemies Who Threaten Them, And The Women Who Reveal To Them An Unjust World On The Brink Of Upheaval.

The Dolan Brothers Live By Their Wits, Jumping Freight Trains And Lining Up For Day Work At Crooked Job Agencies. While Sixteen-Year-Old Rye Yearns For A Steady Job And A Home, His Dashing Older Brother Gig Dreams Of A Better World, Fighting Alongside Other Union Men For Fair Pay And Decent Treatment. Enter Ursula The Great, A Vaudeville Singer Who Performs With A Live Cougar, And Who Introduces The Brothers To A Far More Dangerous Creature: A Wealthy Mining Magnate Who Will Stop At Nothing To Keep His Wealth And His Hold On Ursula.

Dubious Of His Brother’S Idealism, Rye Finds Himself Drawn To A Fearless Nineteen-Year-Old Activist And Feminist Named Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Her Passion Sweeping Him Into The Workers’ Cause. But A Storm Is Coming, Threatening To Overwhelm Them All, And Rye Will Be Forced To Decide Where He Stands. Is It Enough To Win The Occasional Battle, Even If You Cannot Win The War?

An Intimate Story Of Brotherhood, Love, Sacrifice And Betrayal Set Against The Panoramic Backdrop Of An Early Twentieth-Century America That Eerily Echoes Our Own Time, The Cold Millions Offers A Stunning, Kaleidoscopic Portrait Of A Nation Grappling With The Chasm Between Rich And Poor, Between Harsh Realities And Simple Dreams. Featuring An Unforgettable Cast Of Cops And Tramps, Suffragists And Socialists, Madams And Murderers, It Is A Powerful And Moving Tour De Force From A “Writer Who Has Planted Himself Firmly In The First Rank Of American Authors” (Boston Globe).
