Author and attorney Eric Steven Griesel has released his first novel, Celtic Betrayal, a work of historical fiction that follows five generations of the Kerrigan family as they migrate from Ireland to the United States. Set against pivotal moments in history, the novel traces the Kerrigans' journey from Ireland during the potato famine to achieving financial dominance in America.
The story begins in 1847, as James Kerrigan, flees famine-ravaged Ireland in search of new opportunities in America. Over the years, the family slowly builds a thriving business empire, but their success is ultimately tested by internal conflict and a betrayal that threatens to potentially unravel everything they have achieved.
Griesel's edgy and compelling read explores themes of family loyalty, ambition, and the personal costs of obtaining and maintaining power. "It's a story about survival, unbridled ambition, and the ultimate cost of betrayal," Griesel shared. The novel captures not only the struggles of the Kerrigan family but also the broader immigrant experience in America, particularly the challenges faced by those seeking success in a new world.
Drawing on his background, Griesel brings a nuanced understanding of human behavior to his writing. His professional experience working with high-pressure decision-making is evident throughout the story but especially in the novel's depiction of family dynamics and the external forces that shape the Kerrigan family's rise and their possible fall.
Set during key historical events, Celtic Betrayal highlights how immigrant families like the Kerrigans navigated both opportunity and adversity. As the family grows in wealth and power, it also faces ethical dilemmas and conflicts that tests their loyalty to each other. The novel intertwines personal ambition with larger societal forces, revealing the delicate balance existing between success and the sometimes fragile relationships that sustain it.
Early readers have praised the novel for its historical depth and emotional resonance. Reviewers have noted Griesel's ability to weave a compelling narrative that reflects both the specific historical period and universal themes that could exist in any family, such as power, and betrayal. One reviewer on Amazon described it as "a masterful portrayal of the Kerrigan family's journey over five generations, filled with challenges and betrayal. Simply put, it's unpoutdownable!"
