In an effort to once again kick myself in the pants, I’ve turned my book over to another friend, David DeKok. Dave’s a longtime journalist and author who specializes in historic non-fiction. His books about Centralia, a cholera outbreak in New York and an unsolved murder at Penn State have all gotten lots of positive media attention, so I’m eager to hear his thoughts.

In 2006, I began to make good on the childhood promise I made my Grammy. I would discover the truth about my Grandpa Phil's life. No one -- not my father, my aunt or my extended family -- could imagine the story I uncovered. This is the story of how one girl met the grandfather she never knew, and loved him even more because of what she found.
