Night Without Time - Paperback

by Kieran York (Author)

The Brent family might very well be called out of control. Some might ascribe the word madcap to them. What a cast! What a story they weave. From giggles to tears - they provide it all. The mother, Willa Brent, is sometimes befuddled and often staunch. At times she's wiser than any sagacious parent has a right to be. Three sisters, approaching forty, are usually at odds. But their disharmony becomes intensified after the announcement of sudden wealth. Eldest daughter Isabel is the housewife. Middle daughter is Vicky - a lesbian copywriter. Youngest is Leandra - the stunning ex-convict. The trio is usually at odds, just more so after the announcement of wealth. Half a million dollars brings sibling rivalry, not only front and center, but to a new high. These women are colorful and could be mistaken for ditzy, zany, quirky, or flaky. As far as their quaint, sweet Littleton, Colorado neighborhood goes - the women fit in beautifully. One night their lives were rearranged forever. They understood the meaning of fortune. It was a Night Without Time!
