Description

Here Lies a Father by Mckenzie Cassidy is a powerful coming-of-age novel that explores the long-term effects of shameful secrets on a family. When Ian Daly and his sister Catherine arrive for their father's funeral, they uncover a shocking truth about their father's past.

Their father Thomas abandoned two other families, leaving behind two furious wives and several children who never knew him. As Ian sets out to learn the truth about his father's life, he must navigate the complex web of lies and half-truths that have been constructed around him.

This thought-provoking novel examines how difficult it is for a young man to reconstruct his own sense of right and wrong when every value and moral principle he was ever taught was based on a lie. A poignant and affecting read, Here Lies a Father is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in family dynamics and the complexities of human relationships.
