About this ebook

My Father’s House is a family memoir that tells a remarkable story of survival and forgiveness. Peter Fraser lives under the weight of a family secret that must never be revealed. He is one of four children, whose mother tries to manage the home. Father is the source of the mystery, a good and shrewd man who provides and loves but is rarely there.

Peter lives as just another city kid, playing street games and getting in and out of the normal trouble. Meanwhile, the toll on the family, and especially on the youngest, grows heavy with the years even after Father’s hidden secret is revealed. Can the web of deception ever be fully untangled?
