Description: A century before Tiger Woods' 2009 breakdown, the best golfer in America was embroiled in an equally corrosive "secret life." However, the truth of this man's hidden shame stayed out of the press for decades after his shocking demise. Proceeding from facts known of the player in question, as well as his clan, this historical novel conjectures several major unreported melodramas that engulfed that family of immigrant Scots - beyond the trials of its central character.
