More DescriptionWhat happened to Axel Johansson? Hospitalized, caused by an accident, or had someone tried to murder him and take possession of all he had after he struggled to become an entrepreneur of a successful shipping business? My father told me his father's account of what happened to his grandfather, Axel, my great-grandfather. Sometime later, I learned of a completely different history from his daughter, my great aunt. Which rendition was true? Had murder and theft sent great-grandfather to spend the rest of his life in a hospital and driven my grandfather from the society of his family and native land at the tender age of five?There was only one way to find the truth of this tragic story. I was no traveler, nor detective, but I felt driven to go to Sweden and solve the mystery. Elijah began to work on me. Despite my suspicions and efforts of trying to unravel the mystery, Elijah taught me the real reason for my journey.
