A man desperate to know his true identity struggles to solve the infamous kidnapping that nearly destroyed his family-and find his twin sister, who has been missing for more than fifty years. When he was ten years old, Paul Fronczak was snooping around for Christmas presents in a crawl space in his family' s Chicago home. There, he found hundreds of old newspaper clippings about the kidnapping of a one-day-old infant in a hospital in 1964. He also learned that, two years later, the boy was found and returned to his family-and that the boy was him. Nearly fifty years later, Paul, acting on long-held suspicions, took a DNA test that proved he was not the kidnapped boy. In an instant, he found himself at the center of two half-century-old mysteries-who was he, and where was the real Paul? True Identity is about three separate major investigations-the hunt for the real Paul Fronczak; the search for the author' s missing twin sister Jill; and finally, the investigation into his true identity, his heart and soul and the demons inside him-inherited and created-that still need to be confronted.
Paul Fronczak is a military veteran and former actor who now works for a non-profit organization devoted to saving lives. Nine years ago, Paul took a DNA test that disproved the story he' d been told about his identity-that he was "Baby Fronczak," the infant who' d been kidnapped from a Chicago hospital in an infamous 1964 crime. In an instant, he became a man without a name, birthday, or medical history-an "unidentified living person," in official terminology. Paul has spent the last eight years searching for answers-and looking for the real Paul Fronczak. An avid bass guitarist and Rush fan, Paul now lives in Las Vegas and has a daughter he calls "the greatest kid in the world. "
