Karen Constantine has always believed in speaking truth to power, in making positive change, and fighting for the rights of others, since her incarceration into Father Hudson’s mother and baby home when she was fifteen and expecting her first baby. 'Taken: Experiences of Forced Adoption' is her first non-fiction work. She intends to publish two further books, her memoir, 'Rattlechops', and 'When Dogs Barked at Cars', a novel based on a mother and baby home.
