Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was investigating my father, who had absconded from my life, in 2004. I was preparing an indictment, but I ended up as a witness myself. I was writing a book about my father, but he seemed pleased to be captured on the page. #2 My father, who had always been a fan of Mitteleuropean royals, had decided to change his image. He had had enough of impersonating a macho aggressive man that he had never been. He had started going by the name Stefánie. #3 I had no idea how my father could have such an extreme inclination to be alone. He had always been a force to be reckoned with, and I had always feared him. #4 I was 14 years old when I joined the junior varsity track team. I had developed a preference for solo sports. My father insisted that I join him for track practice, which I did not want. He took pride in small scams, and he would often talk about it as if mid-conversation.
