Michael Zimmerman chronicles the painful story of two families built on one lie, forever linked through betrayal, infidelity and bigamy. Then, after hitting rock bottom, Mike becomes a father of his own, and soon discovers something more powerful than the lies; a story of resilience, recovery and hope.
In Michael's Words...
“Looking back now, there were always red flags – signs that my father was not the man we thought he was…his absence on holidays, his secrecy, and the constant excuses that took him out of town. It’s human nature to trust the people we love. But that’s what makes my father’s betrayal so heinous. He took advantage of the trust that the people who loved him had invested in him. It wasn’t simply infidelity. No, my father’s deceit was truly sociopathic. He built and designed our entire identity as a family – our lives – to facilitate his deceit. The truth, when we finally learned it, not only fundamentally changed our family moving forward, it tainted every memory we had together.”
