Jomo's father, Per, has done the unthinkable. Can his secret, which would tear the family apart, be kept to the grave? And what of Jomo's mother and her secret life? How long can lies hold a love together? Frank Lee, in his new book, Jomo: A Man in Time, masterfully intertwines fact with fiction in this exciting action-adventure life journey spanning three generations. What's around the next corner? Lies, secrets, international crime, and science-backed genetics inexorably build to a climax as the reader travels from the unforgiving Serengeti to Paris in the fall to the frigid tundra far above the Arctic Circle to uncover the past. Jomo is a boy, then a man with a DNA genome not seen on earth since 12,175 years ago. His father can never, to his grave, tell his son what he did; and so the saga, as told by longtime director of The Smithsonian, plays out where there are no do-overs, as the past chases the future to an undeserved ending.
