New softcover in printed wraps. 8vo. (5.25 x 0.84 x 8 inches) Clean text free of marks or underlining. 336 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking.

Through this journey, with painful memories now at the forefront of his thoughts, Karen's father began to suffer, making their meetings as much about healing as discovery. Thus began an unintended journey--one taken by a father and daughter who thought they knew each other--as they became newly bound in ways that transcended age and time. .…
