Secrets of the Mind Francis Mcgeaughay

hen they immigrate Gustoff Hinesendorff and his wife Frieda have one son, Fredericko, a bold and belligerent six-year-old. Their family name is hard to understand and difficult to spell. Gustoff and Frieda have so little grasp of English and few communication skills. Reluctantly, Gustoff allows his name to be changed and registered as Hines. Though Gustoff and Frieda add two daughters to their family once in Pennsylvania, Gustoff dies in a coal mine when Fredericko is a teen, leaving the young man responsible for his mother and sisters. And more problem persists: Freida is protecting a deep secret that is locked away in a personal trunk.
