The Cold Millions by Jess Walter

This coming-of-age story, set in early 20th-century Spokane, Washington, focuses on union organizers, business owners, and the nearly impossible choices have-nots face during a historical era that is highly relevant in a tumultuous 2020. This is recommended for those who appreciate Manhattan Beach, Wallace Stegner, and Walter’s other highly acclaimed titles, including Beautiful Ruins.
