"Perfect Vision: The Undertaker's Daughter" reveals the truth behind the most devastating event in the life of Ina Griesbeck. It is a revelation that she hopes will lead to changes that protect other women from the same nightmare.
This book is the second in a series of gripping memoirs by Griesbeck, who grew up inside Lentz Mortuary in Raeford, N.C., where her father was the undertaker. Her first book, "The Undertaker's Daughter: If These Walls Could Speak," introduced readers to the perplexing world of a little girl who grew up abused and surrounded by death, but who always knew that her home, the mortuary, housed ghosts that she called "the others."
While the first book details a harrowing childhood, Griesbeck's newest release describes in horrifying detail her victimization at the hands of a rapist in a North Carolina cotton field.
This book tells of the crushing attack, and its decades-long aftermath that Griesbeck hopes to prevent for others. The author envisions "Perfect Vision" as a catalyst for change in her former hometown and throughout the country, where shelters for battered women and support services for rape victims are desperately needed, but perpetually absent. If the words in these ages lead just one woman to the help she needs, then her mission has been accomplished.
