Matriarch Mary Bernadette is still striking and tireless at seventy-five, with a generous heart that belies her sometimes sharp tongue. Her husband, Paddy, owns the local landscaping business, daughter Grace is a nun, and son Pat and his wife Megan are successful lawyers. Her grandson, PJ, and his new wife, Alexis, live in a charming cottage behind the main house. Church, family, tradition, and the local historical society--everything Mary Bernadette cherishes is in Oliver's Well. But below the surface, there are fractures. Megan sees the strained relationship between her husband and Mary Bernadette, who has never quite recovered from the painful loss of her first-born son. Megan too is torn between gaining her mother-in-law's approval and living life on her own terms. Alexis loves PJ deeply yet chafes against his grandmother's influence in their marriage. Then a looming scandal brings unexpected tragedy, compelling the Fitzgibbons to determine the depth of their loyalty, find their strength--and repair the bonds that have held a town, and a family, together for so long. With warmth and an abundance of insight, Mary McDonough artfully captures the shifting dynamics of family life--and the revelations they may bear just in time. 541 $d 20150624. 650 0 $a Irish American families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Small cities $z Virginia $v Fiction. 941 $a 11 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409022833.0 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119013450.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204080403.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110062319.0 952 $l YWPD162 $d 20190817012608.0 952 $l SKPC094 $d 20190504012345.0 952 $l DYPD423 $d 20190413013035.0 952 $l EBPE325 $d 20170323010404.0 952 $l CXPC586 $d 20160902013550.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20150926032533.0 952 $l SQPC104 $d 20150812011701.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=91C7F61240B711E5ADD4B5DCDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
