Finally, the worm turns, and Maggie lea ms that she has to lose all, in order to gain all. The nov el is packed with drama, as one scene after ano ther unfolds to tighten the grip on Gillon and the mighty deci sion he must make, which can endanger his life, his family, and his; marriage. True to his convictions, Gillon abides by his faith in his fellow man, as he champions their cause of freedom. Maggie, hard as nails to the end, melts a little, but only after the death of her child, which opened her eyes to the fact that she had substi tuted ambition for love, in molding the lives of her seven children. She seeks forgiveness, and we feel that she will be gi ven a second change, as the fa mily sets sail for America, to fulfill their long dream of find ing "a land of the free and a home of the brave."
