This book was written by Helen Fremont, who was curious about her family history and began to do a deep dive into it to discover more about her family history and her identity. Her parents did not seem to be happy with her efforts, because they had tried to move on from the past and forge a new life with new identities. I feel like the author was disrespectful of their privacy and their feelings about what they went through. I found the book very interesting, however, and would recommend.
