Meanwhile, his cousins Janis, Jeremy, and Bessie wrestle with their own destinies, as the untimely, deaths of their parents raise too many questions about who might have wanted them dead, and why. As the cousins begin a desperate search for the assassins, Abraham must search for this own heritage in a world of heartache, stolen happiness, and sudden, irrevocable change.
