Every family comes with its many stories; some universal, some privy to a few, others drowned in secrecy. As far as they knew, everything about their lives and families were rock solid. Until Noelle, Hunter, Byron and Nadine began to unravel hard truths that would challenge or shape; for better or worse; their lives permanently. Four separate individuals and families, but several shared experiences- genome testing, geographic location, impact. What happens when sayings and beliefs such as, "take it to the grave", passed on by their ancestors, are disregarded, left on earth, and brought to light? What happens when the history of colonization impacts a family's system and kinship ties well past the actual days of colonization? Truth can be hard. And, it will either set Noelle, Hunter, Byron and Nadine free, or set them back.
