The Fireflies
Richard is driving south on the New Jersey Turnpike. Suddenly, a commercial airplane explodes above him and his world changes forever. From small town New Jersey to Key West, Florida, to the Berkshires of western Massachusetts, The Fireflies explores the human condition through the eyes of a man longing to find his truth. Join Richard on this heart wrenching yet beautiful journey, as he seeks to capture his epiphany, falls in love with a remarkable woman, struggles with an unpredictable brother, cherishes a deep friendship, and ultimately discovers what it takes to find love and purpose in life. The Fireflies is a story of resilience and survival in a complicated world. The characters are rich with the human spirit, imbued with purpose and heart. This book is for every person who ever asked themselves, how did this happen to me? And for all those who survived. And for all those still struggling.
