This haunting story of a son’s quest to understand the mystery of his father’s death is “searing and unforgettable…memoir writing at its best” (San Francisco Chronicle)—a “powerfully affecting” (O, The Oprah Magazine) portrait of a family and its legacy of secrets.“Family? Secrets? Sometimes I think they are the same thing.” So writes Michael Hainey in this unforgettable story of a son’s search to discover the decades-old truth about his father’s mysterious death. Hainey was a boy of six when his father, a bright and shining star in the glamorous, hard-living world of 1960s Chicago newspapers, died under mysterious circumstances. His tragic absence left behind not only a young widow and two small sons but questions about family and truth that would obsess Michael for decades. Years later, Michael undertakes a risky journey to uncover the true story about what happened to his father. Prodding reluctant relatives and working through a network of his father’s old colleagues, Michael begins to reconcile the father he lost with the one he comes to know. At the heart of his quest is his mother, a woman of courage and tenacity—and a steely determination to press on with her life. A universal story of love and loss and the resilience of family in the face of hardship, After Visiting Friends is the account of a son who goes searching for his father, and in the journey discovers new love and admiration for his mother.

This involving family memoir will particularly appeal to those who eat their breakfast with fingers smudged by printer’s ink from an actual physical newspaper.After a lifetime writing for newspapers, I can’t decide if the drawbacks of the hard-boiled lifestyle outweigh the benefits of getting closer to the truth of things. In “After Visiting Friends” Michael Hainey approaches this conundrum by investigating the mysterious death of his journalist father decades earlier. Fearing what he might discover, he delays his inquiry until he is about the same age, 35, as his father was when he died “after visiting friends,” according to his obituary in the Chicago papers where he worked as a chief copy editor (slotman). Digging after the lapse of so many years to find out what really happened, Hainey goes through his family memories, resurrecting such long-distant characters as his quirky grandmother and reconnecting in a more intimate way with his mother. Hainey loved his father, whom he lost while in grade school, and he learns why so many others also loved him, and why they shielded his family from the details of his death.
