The people that fill my screen each in their own little box sing and smile once more before disappearing, one by one. Blowing them kisses I say, Thank you all. I love you! As I reflect on this sixty-fifth birthday of mine, filled with the forced distances of our pandemic era, the phone rings, jarring me back into the moment.Hello Billy, I say.Hey, Tor. My cousins tone is serious. His words clipped.Whats going on? Everyone okay? I ask.Yes, were fine but well, I was just driving by your Uncle Einars place I hate to tell you this, Tora, but somebody broke in. The sheriff is coming out in the morning. Its quite a mess in there. Looks like every drawer and cupboard was emptied out.Uncle Einars home stands empty much of the year, and is the original family homestead my grandparents built in Solbakken, Minnesota, in the early 1900s after immigrating from Norway.What? Are you kidding? Who would do that? I spout. You need me to come up there?A house. A mess. A mystery. Amongst the scattered papers and photographs, intriguing questions lay unanswered in the Anderson family lineage, hidden for decades. When a stash of ancient coins is found, and a gifted stranger moves in next door, windows are opened to incredible possibilities that transcend imagination and transport Tora throughout her familys generations.Contact: [email protected]
