11/30/18 • 36 min

By request, because I am not editorializing during each chapter read, I am including a discussion about my discoveries and my process after each chapter has posted. If you would like to ask questions, you may do so on Twitter, Facebook or YouTube (@SneakyVarmint). Happy to hear what everyone thinks, and share my thoughts as I learn more about this chapter of my family history. In this episode, I am joined in conversation by my friend, host, magician and family scandal aficionado: Michaelann Awesome.

Chapter 9: Vertigo

In 1970 my grandma kidnapped my dad and his three sisters. They were on the run for 7 years, changing names, evading the law...disappearing. After the children had grown and the dust had settled, after I was born, she wrote her story. It sat on a shelf for many years...until, I, her eldest grandchild offered to share it. I know snippets of stories. I know the general timeline. I know in each of my dad's school yearbooks he has a different last name- and I know where to look for his pictures. But, this is my first time reading the entire tale. I shall learn the details in real time...with you.
