About The Edge of Lost by Kristina McMorris

In October 1937, a prison guard’s daughter goes missing on Alcatraz. Tommy Capello, a convicted bank robber tending the warden’s greenhouse, is the only person who knows where she is—and the search’s outcome could determine both their lives.

The story also reaches back nearly two decades to Dublin, where Shanley Keagan makes a living as an aspiring vaudevillian and dreams of finding his father in America. After tragedy disrupts his crossing, he must find a way to build a new life. Moving between Ireland, New York, and San Francisco Bay, Kristina McMorris’s historical novel brings these storylines together around questions of loyalty, sacrifice, betrayal, and the lies people use to survive. It may appeal to readers of historical fiction, crime, and book-club novels.
