An ambitious, real-life account that seeks to tell the story of the one member of the adoption triad whose voice has been broadly ignored to this point: that of the adult adoptee.

Having made national headlines for his stunning legal victory over the black market adoption ring that had robbed him of his biological origins, Mike Chalek now reveals the incredible events that led up to his long-awaited day in court.

We learn how the oppressive social practices of the "Baby Scoop Era" contributed to Mike's fraudulent placement with an adoptive family that had purchased him for $200 from a well-known baby broker. He then delves into the details of his highly charged quest to reunite with his family of origin, and we get a first-hand glimpse into the difficulties faced by many adult adoptees in the US and world-wide.
