Troubled Bones

Familial memories burn inside of us...especially the bad ones. We are often haunted by psychological ghosts. But no one haunts us more, than dead people we couldn't stand when they were alive.Troubled Bones: Recovery from Dead People You Hate is a tale of recovery and forgiveness based on the true story an eighty-five year old woman who sought to retrieve the bones of her father, George Spade. As she searches for his body, she relies on a single memory...sitting on his shoulders watching a parade in 1917. When she and her daughter locate the cemetery by piecing together facts leading up to his murder and burial, they are in for a nightmarish surprise. The City of Newark sold the cemetery land and converted it into a garbage dump. As she and her adopted daughter embark on a legal and emotional journey to recover his body, healing and recovery come from letting go of bad memories of people they hated in life.
