Twist of Fate

Season 9 Episode 7 | 26m 24s

Life can twist in an instant, taking turns you never saw coming. Paul’s vacation from Honduras to Boston expands into a new life; After being evicted Michele lands just where she needs to be to say goodbye to her dad; and Samantha lets go of her dream, until grief and an invitation lead her back to her voice. Three storytellers, three interpretations of TWIST OF FATE, hosted by Theresa Okokon.
