My Heart Laid Bare by Joyce Carol Oates
Chronicles the endeavours of the Licht family-a clan of cheats, murderers, and con men-from the late eighteenth century through the 1930s, and details the moral consequences of their crimes and transgressions.

The blurb sounds like it would be a great read. ...
