Attending a New England summer camp as an adolescent young Erik Schroder - a first generation East German immigrant - adopts a new name and a new persona - Eric Kennedy - in the hopes that it will help him fit in. This fateful white lie will set him on an improbable and ultimately tragic course.Schroder relates the story of Eric s urgent escape years later through the New England countryside with his six-year-old daughter Meadow in an attempt to outrun the authorities amidst a heated custody battle with his wife who will soon discover that her husband is not who he says he is. From a correctional facility Eric surveys the course of his life in order to understand - and maybe even explain - his behaviour; the painful separation from his mother in childhood; a harrowing escape to America with his taciturn father; a romance that withered under a shadow of lies; and his proudest moments and greatest regrets as a flawed but loving father.
