These Ghosts Are Family by Maisy Card

Stanford Solomon has a secret that has shaped the lives of everyone around him. Decades ago, he faked his death, assumed the identity of his best friend, and became Abel Paisley. Now, nearing the end of his life, he is confronted by his firstborn daughter, Irene, a home health aide unknowingly tending to the father she believed was dead. These Ghosts Are Family spans colonial Jamaica to modern-day Harlem, weaving a tapestry of the Paisley family’s triumphs and tragedies.
