Trae Stratton
Well, I hope I don't go to deep on this for everyone but I have a ton of lost ancestry in my background. Come to think of it, I may have channeled all that into the hidden/mixed bloodline element I used for the plot of THUNDER PEAK.
My grandfather on my father's side died when he was young. My father's mother subsequently abandoned him to an aunt so she could remarry. Apparently the new husband only wanted my father's mom, and not her two boys, so they were given away, had their names changed and treated like they never existed.
My great grandfather on my mother's side was disowned by his family for falling in love with and marrying a Catholic girl.
Put it all together, and there just might be a castle steward out there looking for me!
