Thom Bierdz, soap opera star from “The Young and the Restless”, has written a startling new book. “Forgiving Troy” chronicles the journey Thom’s life has taken as his younger brother beat his mother to death, and his other brother committed suicide.

The raw emotions compel you to turn the next page without a breath. I, and others who have read Thom’s journey in a single sitting, have been left stunned, unable to speak.

Despite the tragic events of “Forgiving Troy”, Thom’s story is one of redemption and triumph. In person, Thom is charming, friendly, and engaging, with eyes that express the emotions of a thousand lifetimes.

Accompanying the Art-O-Biography of Thom Bierdz are illustrations of Thom’s powerful artwork. A remarkable writer, a famous actor, and a gifted artist, his paintings are in the collections of many Hollywood celebrities.

Reviews of “Forgiving Troy” have been published in the National Enquirer, TV Guide.com, E! Entertainment, Frontiers, IN Magazine, Dot, and a number of online sites.

This book deserves to be read by every American, as a testament to how the human spirit can triumph.
