Hammon Falls

When George Hammon's teenaged wife dies in
childbirth in 1914, he flees small-town Iowa for
Europe and the horrors of the Great War. Surviving
battles, homelessness, and disease, he squanders
his days on women and wine, trying to forget his
lost love.
But life is not idle in Iowa during his absence, and
when a bitter and weary George comes home
twenty-two years later, he finds a web of murder, suicide, and shocking revelations.
The future of his family rests on one terrible
choice...but is he prepared to make it?
Spanning the years 1893 through 2009, "Hammon Falls" weaves a tapestry of estrangement, loss, love, sacrifice, and redemption.
