From the Author’s note:
“I often found myself asking, ‘what right do we have to history other than our own?’”
“My hope is that this novel might inspire others to conduct their own research in an effort to learn, grow, and build bridges that will endure the tests of time and historical memory. When that happens, history will no longer stand between us, it will flow through us.”
