ebook

A Czech American man desperatly searches Eastern Europe for his estranged family in this "exciting international story of one family's secretive past" (ForeWord Reviews).

Seattle attorney Chico Lenoch always wondered why his father refuses to contact the family he left behind in the Czech Republic. Since the Velvet Revolution peacefully transitioned the country out from behind the Iron Curtain, he's been able to reunite with them, yet hasn't. Letters he finds in his father's attic don't reveal much—except that Chico appears to have a half-sister halfway around the world.

Compelled to unearth his father's buried secrets, Chico travels to Eastern Europe to find his forgotten sister—who may just be the kidney donor he so desperately needs. On his quest, Chico meets Milada, a beautiful doctor who helps him navigate the obstacles between him and his sibling. While Chico idealizes his father's homeland, Milada is looking for a way out . . . perhaps with the American man she is helping. As Chico learns the truth of his father's history, he must reckon with the pain his search has brought to those in the present.
