Masonfag here. As I said here, >>1269795 I'm about halfway through the book. I've skipped around and forward, and it seems pretty uniform throughout.

You Dad probably did some shady shit somewhere, and relocated. It's one of the perks of masonry. You can travel anywhere and be taken in by the brotherhood so long as you didn't transgress against Masonry. e.g. You could be guilty of treason in country A, and then flee to country B where they'd set you up and get you a new life.
