The true story of a boy's lifelong quest.

Christmas 1961

An incident occurs which splits a family.

It is at this moment that twelve-year-old Martyn Bradley discovers that he is adopted (even though he's not sure what that means). In seeking further information from his mum, he is told a story so shocking that he resolves to find his birth mother and family, however long it takes. This book follows that quest from his early childish efforts right through to his adult research and beyond.

​

A true emotional rollercoaster, combining rich storytelling with elements of social history spanning five decades.
