While trying to make sense of this staggering tragedy, Ben can't help but think back through his life: the hard work and the many peaceful Sunday afternoons growing up on his family far…m in Ohio in a house without a bathroom or running water; his high school antics in the 1950s; his time in Haight-Ashbury while attending law school in 1960s San Francisco; and the highs and lows, both personal and professional, of life after school. Threaded throughout these reminiscences, Ben reveals the details of the investigation of his family members' murders-and the arrest and trial of the parties involved.In this decades-long saga, there is marriage and divorce, love and loss, family and friendship; there are political campaigns and business ventures, some failed and some fruitful.

In this collection of imaginative short stories that depict poignant moments in the life of a woman on a journey of self-discovery, the heroine, Grace, garners insight and spiritual wisdom from mythical characters-guidance that ultimately helps her to make an independent, authentic life for herself.
