In the wake of a horrific and unimaginable tragedy, Bambi Müller and her younger brother, Joseph, set out on a quest for justice. After they've lost everything, they're determined to find their new selves and what it means to have a home, again.
Their parents, prominent winemakers in Walla Walla, Wash., are murdered in cold blood by a U.S. Military Police Officer. With nothing left but the foreign idea of revenge, they embark on a monumental journey through a world that is falling apart, a nightmarish world stranger than anything they've ever experienced before.
Sprawling across time and geography, and featuring hundreds of characters-spies and drunk delegates representing the League of Nations, murderous twin brothers, winemakers and potheads, anarchists and assassins, faux-patriots, Nihilists, philosophers, pimps, cowboys and Native Americans, veterans and pacifists, many finding out that the American Dream was a Lie-they are all connected by the shared paranoia of the United States entering World War II.
In Brian Nisun's It Was Called a Home we confront the realization that the greatest evil can reside within those who swear to protect the innocent, and that there is no place like home.
