GOING HOME CAN TRIGGER PLEASANT MEMORIES. For Tom Fedder it has produced only dread. For decades he had avoided any reason to revisit Tanner. Now a last visit is necessary. He plans a quick, under-the-radar return, a few days to take care of business, before escaping to the relative safety of Highland City.
ON HIS OWN HE COULD HAVE MANAGED THAT. But in the company of Rick, his Native-American step-son, those carefully-laid plans are doomed from the beginning. Once Rick makes contacts with the family his father has never mentioned, the old man’s hopeful ’hurry up and leave’ plans begin to unravel. THEY WERE A DOWN AND OUT, YET FIERCELY PROUD BUNCH, The Tanner branch of the Fedder clan----the wife Tom had deserted forty years before, the daughter he remembered as an infant, and the granddaughter he did not know he had. As expected they wanted nothing to do with Tom, which suited him just fine .UNTIL THAT IS, FANNED BY RICK’S UNEXPECTED INTEREST IN HIS GRANDDAUGHTER, and his own shocking reunion with the fiercely independent former Mrs. Fedder, Tom Fedder’s GOING HOME becomes far more complicated than he could have imagined..
