"Artie Dam is a man with a secret. He goes about his days teaching American history to high schoolers, correcting their casual ignorance, and lending a kind word to those who need it most.

But when a startling accident awakens a new perspective in Artie, and he realizes that life has its own secret it's been keeping from him--along with a lot more to say on the weighty matters of fate and freedom in his home and his country--he charts another course full of grief, hilarity, and heart, to a place where the end marks the beginning"--Provided by publisher.
