Title: And the dark sacred night
Description: Kit Noonan is an unemployed art historian with twins to help support, a mortgage to pay, and a wife frustrated by his inertia. Raised by a strong-willed, secretive single mother, Kit has never known the identity of his father, a mystery his wife insists he must solve to move forward with his life. Out of desperation, Kit goes to the mountain retreat of his mother's former husband, Jasper, a take-no-prisoners outdoorsman. There, Kit and Jasper confront memories of the bittersweet decade when their families were joined. Reluctantly breaking a long-ago promise, Jasper connects Kit with Lucinda and Zeke Burns, who know the answer he's been looking for.
