The ghosts and remnants of an abandoned American military base in Germany. A medieval monastery's modern secrets. An unsuspecting professor uncovers much more than he imagined, but who can he tell?
Jason Carr knew his DNA test results would be complicated, but not to the extent of compelling him to visit a decommissioned Army base and a medieval German monastery, and in the process uncovering a world of surprises involving his family.
As an established university graphic design historian and researcher, his proficiency in the intricate design and text of ancient manuscripts was something he treasured enhancing and sharing, ever since living in an American military community in late 1980s Cold War Germany.
He had been confident in his expertise and place in a comfortable academic life of teaching and disseminating his research. But keeping newly discovered secrets from newly discovered family was a challenge he could not have imagined or prepared for.
How to be informed by history, even complex personal history, while also moving on and forgetting, would prove to be Jason's greatest trial yet.
How do you make unimaginable connections, uncover shocking truths, and then decide who gets to know?
