The Barn Find

“The Barn Find” is a gut-wrenching, yet deeply touching saga of three generations of a once loving New England family that has survived countless crisis’ — only to be torn apart by a deadly, inexplicable tragedy that captured the eyes of the world on a cold winter day in January, 1982. The family conflict that ensues literally pits fathers against sons, as the agony of their loss shreds the binding that once held them firm and united in love and respect. It takes their combined courage, sacrifice and resolve, the heart-breaking hallucinations of a highly decorated Korean War veteran, the romance and intrigue of an antique car that holds together the last threads of their dying unity, and the boundless determination of a young man who will do anything — at any cost — to heal his family and bring peace and redemption to the Evan’s of Willington, Connecticut. "The Barn Find" is a family stew that has been simmering for Author F. Mark Granato for many years, drawing upon countless personal experiences, relationships and events. One reviewer said: “This is the best Christmas story I’ve ever read that has nothing to do with Christmas.”
