The Saint, The Sinner(s) and Eddie: The True Story of a Small-town Texas Secret

When Eddie Love took a 23andMe DNA test, he thought the results would tell him whether he had Irish or French or German roots. What he didn’t realize is that he’d find out that the man who he thought was his father was not his father. Thus began a multi-year caper to find out not only who Eddie’s real father was, but what happened (besides, you know, the obvious).

Eventually, Eddie lassoed his friend Christina into helping him solve his mystery and document their journey. Their adventure took them deep into Orange, Texas, where elderly residents eventually came clean with secrets they’d been keeping for decades.

Told through narrative, emails and interviews, “The Saint, The Sinner(s) and Eddie” is a quirky, true story about family, lies and friendships (plus a handful of dogs, countless bowls of gumbo, one pawnshop wedding and more half siblings than you can count).
