Two daughters born of another father are in  perfect health. When an act of violence shatters Rosa's resolve to  maintain her increasingly dangerous existence, she flees with the  children and her precious heirloom quilts to the mesa where she last  saw her beloved mother alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a flash flood traps them in a treacherous canyon, only one man  is brave-or foolhardy-enough to come to their rescue: Lars Jorgenson,  Rosa's first love and the father of her healthy daughters. Together  they escape to Berkeley, where a leading specialist offers their only  hope of saving Ana and Miguel. Here in northern California, they create  new identities to protect themselves from Rosa's vengeful husband, the  police who seek her for questioning, and the gangsters Lars reported to  Prohibition agents-officers representing a department often as corrupt  as the Mob itself. Ever mindful that his youthful alcoholism provoked  Rosa to spurn him, Lars nevertheless supports Rosa's daring plan to  stake their futures on a struggling Sonoma Valley vineyard-despite the  recent hardships of local winemakers whose honest labors at viticulture  have, through no fault of their own, become illegal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47077292409072,"sku":"9781101560372","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781101560372_p0.jpg?v=1763688285","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781101560372","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
