No End in Sight, A Family's Raw Struggle with Memory Reconstruction

A family implodes when a relative makes an accusation of extreme sexual impropriety. F.A. Loomis—author of historical works such as As Long As Life, The Memoirs of a Frontier Woman Doctor, fiction including Frankie Ravan and Blue Duwamish, and poetry chapbooks East West West East and Salmon River Lookout—takes readers on a journey into the bizarre world of "Repressed Memory Syndrome" where psychotherapists and troubled individuals create realities based on observations of the behavior of alleged perpetrators. It all starts simply in therapy, with shared insights and suggestions, then the gates of hell are entered where there is no longer a connection to a world of common sense or fairness. One day life is filled with normal challenges and the next there are deeper anomalies, proclivities, and aberrations whose roots are deeper than it is possible to discover. What is often left after a binge of destructive accusations is still more roadbed and endless, unexpected surprises.
