TOMAH, WI, UNITED STATES, December 10, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Joseph M. Kress brings readers a gripping and deeply personal account of tragedy, resilience, and determination in his book “Single Handed”. This true-life story chronicles the life of Greg Kress, a newlywed tragically murdered just ten days into his honeymoon, and the profound impact his death had on his brother, Joseph.
