The author continues the dramatic and tragic real life story about his
family's secret. His previous novel, which critics and readers have given
rave reviews, sat the stage for sequels to this dramatic story. Readers
demanded sequels to the previous novel. The author agreed to quench their
thirst with more true drama about his family.
In this offering, the author,
Willie Tee, explores in depth the issues and problems that caused his family's
burdensome tragedy during 1957 on his maternal grandparents farm. The tragedy
would be kept as a secret from Willie, his siblings, and cousins, who were
toddlers when the incident occurred. The secret and its burdens would be
revealed to them when they became teenagers.
A series of tragedies spun from
the secret over a forty-year period of time. Perhaps it was coincidental, but
this sequel raises some issues that are laden with mystery. This memoir mentions
that subsequent deaths and tragedies within the author's family had dates with
similar numerical significance. This story explicitly depicts the relativity of
dates on which family tragedies occurred. The dates indicate a pattern. People
often say that our lives and its events are predestined before we are born. The
pattern of dates in which tragedies occurred in the author's family seem
predictable and is eerie.
This story is thought provoking and mysterious. The
author has dreams about future events, which mysteriously occur. His presence at
events, which may have influenced the outcome gives credence to this incredible
story. Perhaps the author is motivated by destiny to reveal his family's story
to readers.
Sometimes during the course of life, authors write books
that motivate readers to journey down rewarding paths of life. Perhaps it was
Willie's destiny to influence others.
