America is a nation on the rise at the end of the war and the beginning of the Age of Oil, Last House follows one family's deeply complicated relationship to the resource that both built their fortune and fueled their greatest tragedy . . . 

Spanning multiple generations and eighty years, Last House is an emotional tour de force that digs deeply into questions of inheritance and what we owe each other that manages to capture to stunning effect the gravity of time, the double edge of progress, and the hubris of empire. 

“A richly detailed, slow-burning family saga distinguished by incisive psychological insight and masterful research, delivering swaths of cultural and historical background as gracefully and intelligently as it illuminates the emotional depth of the characters.” -- New York Times Book Review
