The Broken Branches
A school project begins a journey for Sarafina Saldana that will change her life forever. In an attempt to gain a scholarship to a prestigious school, she is thrown headfirst into a labyrinth of family history that will confuse and deepen her search.
“Don’t dig up old bones,” was the response Sarafina received from her mother when she asked questions. What was it in the family history that was so horrible that she wouldn’t discuss it? Only delving into history records will her solve the lingering mystery of her parentage and mend the broken branches of her childhood one last time.
