Harriet Anne Kinikin was a strikingly attractive woman who in her prime could have easily passed for actress Lana Turner. Harriet’s voluptuous good looks instantly turned the head of Frank ‘Peavey’ Heffelfinger, an heir to his grandfather's hugely successful grain business, when she volunteered at a Republican fundraising event.“For Peavey’s Sake” is the true story of the longstanding love affair between the single working class woman and the prominent Minneapolis businessman who was married with five children. Their forbidden romantic escapades quickly produce a ‘secret’ love child.Peavey, who had a stellar reputation to uphold, told his mistress that it would be in everyone’s best interest to tell no one, including their future son Frank, that he was the father. Peavey would be known only as a “close friend of the family” when he visited Harriet for their frequent midday trysts. Harriet soon found an ‘available’ man who was willing to assume the role of Frank’s legal father only to discover on her wedding night that he was an impotent, fire-stoke wielding maniac. A steady stream of secrets, turbulent theatrics, never-ending neglect, monstrous mood swings, ill-fated romances, mounting legal problems, financial ruin and alcoholism eventually left Frank no choice but to run off to a faraway country. Expect to laugh, cry, get angry and ultimately find a sense of hope and peace when you read “For Peavey’s Sake.”
