What if your family's stories-the ones that shape your identity-aren't exactly true?

Setting out to fill gaps in his memories, this book's narrator learns how family lore and secrets form who we think we are. Revisiting his two early homes-the "House of Secrets" in San Francisco, and the "House of Lies" on the dunes beyond-he finds a childhood distorted by private wounds, public history, and conflicting realities. Paging through photo albums and documents, he at last invites his ancestors to speak for themselves. They reveal women challenging expectations, men carrying scars of war and disaster, and children inheriting their parents' dreams -- and deceptions.

As personal memory collides with family myth, we watch ambition, fear, love, and denial intertwine across four generations of American history. A compelling blend of memoir and fiction, this book will appeal to readers drawn to intimate family dramas, literary reflection, and stories about the power of memory and reinvention.

Hein, Mark: - Mark Hein, a San Francisco native, has lived and worked in several US states and foreign countries. While raising four children, he enjoyed careers as a college professor, newspaper editor, and psychotherapist. Now retired, he writes and paints in a forest canyon in Los Angeles.
