    About this ebook

    This is a book inspired by my family history; some of the details and characters are fictitious, and some very real. I hope you will find yourself lost in the truths and lies that inspire the chronicles of our lives. In this bitter sweet story you will find suspense, drama, death and hope, with a great deal of love for the family and a strong will to survive and some day find each other.


    I encourage all of you to do a little bit of searching and learn more about your own family history, youll be surprised to find a brand new story to add to the old one.


    For you are a part of whom they were...
