In her memoir and historical mystery Unto the Daughters, author & former journalist Karen Tintori unveils a family secret set in turn-of-the-century Detroit. The inciting incident to break the silence was an obliterated passport, and then a wedding photo.
"I am Italian, " she said. "My mother's side of the family was from southern Sicily. You don't tell family secrets."
The story of her great-grandaunt Francesca haunted Tintori's inquisitive mind for decades. After 12 years, three novels, and advice from the editor, Tintori re-imagined the haunting truth of an honor killing.
In crafting this family story, Tintori combined her novelist's heart with a journalist's head.
Listen in for a chance to win a signed copy of Unto the Daughters.
