Description: "While clearing through her late mother's bedroom, Emma finds a thirty-year-old newspaper clipping that her mother had kept, announcing the arrival of a new baby boy. Realizing that the baby must be the son she gave up for adoption, Emma finds herself vividly recalling the stigma of her schoolgirl pregnancy and the pain of her separation from the baby. She becomes transfixed by this link to her first-born, and sets out to search for Oliver, her adopted son -- despite the fact that she now has a husband and two teenage children, who know nothing of her past."--Jacket.
