Tragedy unfolded on April 19, 1995, when a massive bomb exploded in America's Heartland, killing 168 people, including fifteen children. History says the Oklahoma City bombing was lone wolf terrorism. But haunting fresh evidence points instead to a neo-Nazi plot in which the FBI played a hidden role.

Soon, the FBI canceled the search, saying eyewitnesses who saw John Doe 2 were mistaken.

They build themselves a cozy little cottage on a lake in Muskoka, a cottage that becomes emblematic of their victory over the Nazis. The charming retreat is a safe haven, a refuge from haunted memories. That is, until a single act of unspeakable violence defiles their sanctuary.

Using my story of surviving childhood trafficking to rich doctors (and other wealthy members of rural WV) and how it led to marrying a psychopath to educate others about the dangers of unresolved childhood trauma is a passion of mine.
