The Year We Disappeared - A Father-Daughter Memoir
Cylin Busby
Unabridged
8 hours 34 minutes
From the publisher
A peaceful summer night is shattered by gunfire as an unseen assailant tries to murder police officer John Busby. Though horribly wounded, Busby survives. But the perpetrator remains at large, meaning neither Busby, nor his wife, nor their three children are safe.
Working together, John and his daughter Cylin, who was nine at the time, recount the story of that year. John writes graphically, and movingly, of his wounds, his pain, his multiple surgeries, and his rage. Cylin speaks from a child's point of view, sharing vivid memories of confusion, loss of friends, and the struggle to build a new life.
Together, father and daughter craft an unforgettable picture of fear in a small town, of police corruption, and of a malignant thug who no one dares to cross. Yet their story is also one of redemption and recovery, and ultimately of hope and healing.
