Morrow Family Saga

Welcome to the 1950s. The Red Scare is in full swing since the passage of the McCarran Act. The battle between the Morrow and the French families is about to come to a head. Amid this, a nine year old Natalia Morrow lives her life oblivious to any sort of reality. But when things take away her peace and joy and remove her beloeved grandparents, she finds that reality can be cold.

Natalia Morrow's 15. her relationship with Tobias isn't all what it seems. As Thanksgiving nears, America officially goes to Vietnam, Toby plots his revenge, and Toffer realizes his life is almost over.J. Edgar (Eddie) Hoover and Clyde Tolson hide their relationship while running the FBI. But in Washington, secrets never remain secrets....

"Run through the jungle." The phrase means so many things. For the Morrows, it means a new sense of being. Natalia and her friends have found success as a band who rivals Elvis in popularity. Natalia's dreams are finally coming true. But fame is a jungle fraught with danger and uncertainty. But for Mark Standish, run through the jungle has a totally different meaning as he literally runs through the Vietnam jungle to get away from his decisions. His sole purpose, to destroy the one person he sees as the root of all his bad decisions. Natalia Morrow.

At the same time Joe McCarthy and his acolytes wage their war against imagined communists with the help of an unlikely ally: Eddie Hoover, the head of the FBI. But Hoover is also an ally of those seeking to bring down French Industries, which makes him a contradiction in terms. Inadvertently, Hoover began a relationship between Tom Goldman, Kendrick Wells, and the Morrow family that will last decades.

1952 holds many surprises for Natalia and her family. First, Papa surprises them with a trip to New York and Broadway. Then they go to Washington DC.
