I Am Going Where I Belong", the latest novel from master storyteller Hans Lindor, is a gripping journey through the plight of a once-wealthy immigrant family. Chriscile Leger, mother of two, is forced to flee her native Haiti with her children after her husband is brutally assassinated during a coup d'etat. Suddenly without money or possessions, the Legers are forced to relocate to a poor neighborhood in Florida, where they find themselves surrounded by violence, poverty and racism. Throughout their struggles, and despite ongoing strife in her native Haiti, Chriscile longs to return to her country and steadfastly refuses to adapt to the American way of life. Her elder son, Hans, strives to leave the poverty behind, working to financially support the family, emotionally support his mother, and make his personal dreams real. Just as hope begins to shine on their lives and Hans' goals are in reach, tragedy strikes once again with devastating consequences that reach beyond the small immigrant family's existence. "I Am Going Where I Belong" is filled with heartrending turns of fate that, through their believability, make each character vibrantly engaging for the reader.
