Coming to Terms is a powerful and thought-provoking memoir by David Frankel, a survivor of the 1993 mass shooting at 101 California Street in San Francisco. Co-authored with constitutional attorney C.D. “Chuck” Michel, the book explores how Frankel’s search for meaning, justice, and personal safety led to a profound transformation.
“This is not just a story of trauma and recovery—it’s an invitation to rethink what it truly means to protect ourselves and those we love.”
