June’s book title is The Pale-Faced Lie: A True Story by David Crow

• • Genre: Memoir
  • Synopsis:

    • A violent ex-con forces his son to commit crimes in this riveting memoir about family and survival

      Growing up on the Navajo Indian Reservation, David Crow and his three siblings idolized their dad. Tall, strong, smart, and brave, the self-taught Cherokee loved to tell his children about his World War II feats. But as time passed, David discovered the other side of Thurston Crow, the ruthless ex-con with his own code of ethics that justified cruelty, violence, lies—even murder.

      Through sheer determination, David managed to get into college and achieve professional success. When he finally found the courage to refuse his father’s criminal demands, he unwittingly triggered a plot of revenge that would force him into a deadly showdown with Thurston Crow.

      David would have only twenty-four hours to outsmart his father—the brilliant, psychotic man who bragged that the three years he spent in the notorious San Quentin State Prison had been the easiest time of his life.

      Raw and palpable, The Pale-Faced Lie is an inspirational story about the power of forgiveness and the strength of the human spirit.
