About this title

Synopsis

At three weeks old, a baby boy leaves behind his birth country and the truth of who he really is. Raised with love in a foreign land, he grows into a man shaped by stories he assumes are his own....until one discovery shatters everything.

When a 'forgotten' document resurfaces, his world tilts.
A name he has never heard.
A place he cannot remember.
A truth no one intended to hide - yet, one that changed the course of his life.

Driven by a longing he cannot ignore, he travels across borders and decades to piece together the identity stolen by silence. What he finds is not just a birth mother waiting half a world away - but the weight of a mistaken identity that shaped his entire existence.

In the space between two families, two countries, and two histories, he must confront the most intimate question of all: Who am I, if the story I lived was never mine?

A tender, heartbreaking story of adoption, belonging, and the human need to know where we come from, this short fiction will stay with readers long after the final page.

Perfect for fans of Emotional Journeys of Self-Discovery, Origins, Identity, and Adoption.
