The book "You May Not Be Who You Think You Are," is a compelling, hard-fought, masterful, real-life account of one man's journey of dogged determination to discover his once concealed bloodline. A bloodline that had been quietly and mysteriously tucked away in the innermost crevices of the heart where only the sacred secrets of adoption, and the captive spirit of deceit owned the power to release it into the light of truth. Already accomplished in his own right as a god-fearing son, husband, father, soldier and professional, John yet yearned for an identity that had eluded him for a lifetime. And it is on this very dynamic, riveting, heartfelt, account of his pursuit of authentic personhood; and his quest to bring forth what had been born and reared in the darkness of sin, that John Isham Payne Jr., affords us [the readers] the opportunity of a lifetime to turn the pages of destiny and discover what not only many adoptees pine for, but also for those who have assumed an identity of assurance, only to have 'spit' contradict the ill-conceived truth of a lie. ~Eddie L.
