Description
Mislaid is a novel about two people who find themselves in an unlikely marriage, and the consequences that follow. Peggy, a young woman with literary ambitions, falls for Lee, a poet and professor, despite their mismatched backgrounds.
Their relationship becomes complicated when Peggy discovers she is pregnant, and they are forced to navigate their differences as they try to build a life together. Years later, Peggy's daughter Karen grows up in a different world, one where her true identity is hidden from those who might not understand.
As the years pass, Karen must confront the secrets of her past when she meets her long-lost brother Byrdie at university. This chance encounter sets off a series of misunderstandings that lead to a surprising and comedic conclusion.
