What happens when the father you admire most becomes the source of your deepest wounds?
The Halfway Bridge is a raw and powerful memoir by Francisco Suárez, eldest son of Frank Suárez, a beloved Puerto Rican entrepreneur known for his charisma and public success. Behind that legacy, however, was a family unraveling in silence.
Growing up in the shadow of a father transformed by Scientology, Francisco shares a deeply personal story of emotional distance, control, and the quiet pain that shaped his youth. Through unexpected twists and emotional turning points, he reflects on the profound impact that parental decisions can have on a child's life.
More than a memoir, this is a story about breaking cycles, reclaiming mental health, and learning to heal from the inside out. It's not an exposé, but a son's search for clarity, peace, and the courage to speak.
Written with vulnerability and strength, The Halfway Bridge connects with anyone who has struggled with family, identity, or the long road back to emotional freedom.
