Family Secrets

The New York Times–bestselling author chronicles the highs and lows of a Jewish-American family in this “rich, complex . . . juicy family saga” (The Washington Post).

“A very good book.” —The New York Times

Adam Saffron—builder, patriarch, and autocrat—has built a family empire. The Saffron family is successful, prestigious, and closely knit, and their great Windflower estate has kept them safe from the dangerous and enticing world beyond its gates for many years. The Windflower is superior and all-inclusive—much like the Saffrons themselves—but how long can their dynasty last? Family Secrets is an epic three-generational saga that follows the fascinating Saffron family as they strive to keep their legacy alive, despite the separate paths each family member will inevitably take.

“As far as family sagas go, this is one of the best examples I have read in recent years.” —John Barkham
