Lost Father

Book Review

My daughter, Michele, has written a compelling new book.

Some stories are not easy to tell. Being the father of a lost child is one of them. The main character, Bruce, is suddenly contacted by someone from the past. The story relates the anguish, the sorrow and the secrets he has kept hidden for 50 years. Confronted with the impact of his lies, he first makes excuses. He finally realizes that the time has come to face his past, but he doesn’t know how. His life flashes before him as he reviews his many missteps after his one huge mistake. His bad decisions have compounded leaving him deeply conflicted. A random stranger offers counsel. As the story unfolds, the answer gradually reveals itself.

Lost Father is a thoughtful, well-written book about healing nad redemption. It provides an accurate and compelling description of how difficult personal decisions were made in the milieu of changing values and conditions in a bygone era. (The 1960’s.)  The conclusion leaves the reader speculating about Bruce’s next step in his path to healing the damage he has caused.
