Unearthed memories from beyond the grave fuel The Band of Tears—a unique thriller that delivers the raw essence of human nature. It’s the haunting story of lives woven together through reincarnation, and the human soul’s need to be remembered…and vindicated.

Theresa is an exquisitely beautiful investigative reporter for the Chicago Daily Watch, but her perfect world is shaken when she finds that her handsome and charming husband is physically abusive—and has ties to the Chicago mafia.

After a nasty divorce, Theresa escapes Chicago and rents a lakeside cabin in Wisconsin. There she finds a golden ring and is startled to discover that she is able to glimpse scenes from the past. Her flashbacks of the 1920s reveal the private details of Al Capone’s life as seen through the eyes of a victim of the Chicago mob. From the grimy streets of 1920s Chicago to Al Capone’s luxurious mansion in Wisconsin, Theresa’s journey takes her on a path that only fate can execute. Is the discovery of the band of tears the end—or the beginning of a new life?
