One of the best memoirs of 2022 according to Amazon. For fans of Don't Let Me Go and The Glass Castle. A heartfelt story that will surprise you.
Justine grew up in a wealthy family. Her father is a well-to-do lawyer. Her mother is a housewife who keeps everything perfect. The neighbors admire them. Especially the mother: her aristocratic manners and royal British accent. But before her parents die, the daughter learns of a major family secret. The secret of Dorothy Soames. Who is she and what is her connection to Justine? Now the daughter must travel to a famous British orphanage for children and investigate the past of a man she never knew. Justine piecing together an unthinkable story page by page. She arrives in dusky London, travels to the damp and misty English countryside to lift the veil of mystery over an ancient orphanage raising servants for the aristocracy. Its history is closely tied to royalty, famous politicians, doctors and artists. Justine had no idea how terrible and cruel the abandoned children's past would turn out to be. The further she investigates the unjust history, the more unbelievable the life of a little girl who should never have been born seems.
