Book excerpt: For more than 50 years, Michael Grimm was both intrigued and bewildered by the mystery of his father’s childhood—a dark period in the family’s unfortunate past. With a background in forensic science and a love of historical research, Michael set out to learn all there was to know. In Tell Edith Goodbye, he reveals the true story for the first time. It’s the summer of 1935, and a stranger known simply as the Finn has arrived in the Skagit Valley. Like hundreds of other out-of-work men during the Great Depression, he is looking for employment. But what he finds is a family who welcomes him into their home—and into the life of an eleven-year-old girl… Young Edith’s infatuation with a drifter who will stop at nothing to secure a permanent place in her fragile heart results in a tragedy that will rock a far Northwest community and continue to shape one family’s lives into the future.
