Lance Spangler grew up in a rural town in Alabama. Diversity was an ugly word causing him to recede from mankind and life. Taken by his family to a foreign country as a missionary furthered the distance between his known world and aided in alienating the realm which cannot be seen. Severe trauma was to bring his life to an end until his father came to him offering a journey he had long since felt was improbable. A "fishing trip" can mean little to many but actually saved this writer's life. This is a story where hate is revered and justified and where the heartfelt statement "Te quiero i te amo" can mean the difference between life and death. This is a love story between one man and his father.
