The Orphan at the Irish Adoption House: Completely unputdownable, tear-jerking and addictive Irish historical fiction

Ireland, 1925. With shaking hands, I unfold the crumpled letter and read it again, my eyes swimming with tears. Could it really be true? Is there hope for me and my baby? Is help really coming? When Mary-Kate’s baby is taken away from her, nothing can reassure her that, now an orphan lost in the world, her little boy will have a better life. She knows what it’s like to be without a family: St Patrick’s Mother and Baby Home is not the first orphanage she’s lived in, and even though she can’t give her son a father, or a perfect life, she will do anything she can to get him back. But heartbroken and desperate, Mary-Kate doesn’t know how to find her baby, until she receives a letter from an old friend, a letter that changes everything… Help is coming for Mary-Kate. But as much as the secret plan to reunite her with her little boy raises her spirits, the letter is also gut-wrenching. Why was she left to grow up all alone… when her father is actually alive? Could Mary-Kate really have a family out there to rely on?
