Mascia begins the book by describing his idyllic childhood in a small town on the Jersey Shore. He was a happy and carefree child, and he loved spending time with his family and friends. However, his life was turned upside down when he was 12 years old, when his father was killed in a car accident. Mascia was devastated by his father's death, and he struggled to come to terms with his loss.
In the years that followed his father's death, Mascia's life continued to be marked by tragedy. His mother died when he was 18, and his sister died when he was 22. Mascia was once again left reeling from the loss of his loved ones, and he began to question his own purpose in life.
Eventually, Mascia found solace in writing. He began to write about his experiences in an effort to make sense of them. Writing helped Mascia to heal from his losses, and it also gave him a sense of purpose.
In *Across the Bay*, Mascia shares his story with honesty and vulnerability. He writes about the pain of losing his loved ones, but he also writes about the hope and resilience that he found in the face of adversity. Mascia's story is a moving and inspiring reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope.
