This book, The Secret Storm, portrays the true and vivid accounts of extraordinary circumstances as told by a father, Dale Berne, and a son, Scott Berne. When the author gained legal custody of his two sons, his ex-wife hired a hit man to kill him, burned down their family home, absconded with the family bank account, created personal and professional discrimination at Dale Berne's place of work, and parentally kidnapped their two sons, Scott and Mark, taking them on a two-year dangerous journey to five countries and thirteen residences while simultaneously catapulting Dale Berne into an unprecedented search culminating with national and international notoriety and mainstream media attention.The voices of Dale and Scott Berne jump off each page as they struggle to cope with the emotional roller coaster of events and their efforts to swim out of the turbulent waters of disaster and into a tranquil stream of a stable family environment."From victims to survivors."There are several hundred-thousand parental abductions in the United States each year.There are more than several hundred-thousand parental abductions worldwide each year (not all countries report their cases). We, the authors, expect that this book will be one of the most emotional and insightful works that you will ever read because it is so much more than a case of parental abduction. The events portrayed in this true story have affected deeply each person who has been catapulted into the swirl of the secret storm--the attorneys, the district attorney, the family court judges, the social workers, the law guardian, the psychiatrists, the family physician, the neighbors, the schoolteachers, the school board members, and of course, the family members of three generations.
