Description
A powerful, moving, and darkly-honest memoir
Sue Watson grew up in a perfect, loving nuclear family, a white-picket fence, quarter acre paradise. But all was not quite as it seemed. Sue and her sister were adopted, and one day when Sue as a young woman was studying in Wellington, she received a letter from her birth mother Elizabeth Winters. This began a life-long journey to discover the shadowy truth of her past.
