Archie is a teenage boy with a chip on his shoulder. Sharpe is a young man with divided loyalties, living as an outsider in a poor hillside village. Yet, all three long for the same thing-a father's approval. But the man who has the power to give it to them won't...or can't. Behind his back, his property workers call him a tyrant for allegedly murdering a worker in the past, and his family walks on eggshells when he returns home from his drunken visits with his mistress. All while Cailin, Archie, and Sharp's unfulfilled desires spiral into rejection, mistaken affections, and murder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet in a seaside village during the final year of World War II and Jamaica's first general election, \u003cem\u003eWhen Trees Fall\u003c\/em\u003e is the first novel in Dale Mahfood's \u003cem\u003eWood and Water\u003c\/em\u003e series.

When Trees Fall by Dale Mahfood portrays this society with compelling authenticity and irresistible allure. It is about the society I grew up in and people I might have known, yet the novel is so meticulously researched that I kept coming across surprising nuggets of new information. And there's more than mere historical virtuosity. This is a complex and many layered family saga. The writing style reminds me of Jane Austen, which enhances the story's antique flavor, making it easy to suspend disbelief as you travel back in time.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e-George Graham, Journalist and Author of Hill-An'-Gully Rider\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e10% of the sales profits of this book go to Food for the Poor, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to \"help the materially poor and to renew the poor in spirit\" in seventeen Caribbean and Latin American countries.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 350\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.94 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 15, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47241653256441,"sku":"9781735908359","price":33.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/dzEzNXl3ck9nU0V6OXRUZkp0eERFdz09_45cf92e1-95c6-41b0-aaae-c8f817ce906f.webp?v=1768584426","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/when-trees-fall-hardcover-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
