DARBY ISLAND

Personal lives are broken and mended on this Great Lakes island where residents come to terms with the economic realities of the Great Depression of 1929. Their survival and future prosperity is guided by the talents of an unassuming, but financially brilliant, heroine and her philanthropic uncle. Maura Birch is the daughter of Maggie Mahoney Ryan, the tragic heroine of Heaven's Doorway, who died tragically in the prime of her life. Maggie's mother, Brigid Mahoney, is now a powerful and loving source of strength and support for this new generation of her family, and she is a shining example to Maura of the importance of taking action for the benefit of others when it matters most.
