Description
Saoirse was born with a power that would set her apart from the beginning. As a child, she was rejected, but as an adult, she is sought out by strangers who sense the strength of her life experience. Her early years were marked by uncertainty and sorrow, as her mother Maisie slept in a different part of St. Patrick's Mother and Baby Home, sharing a collective sorrow that would haunt Ireland's social history. Despite this, Saoirse was given to Lil and Joe Corcoran, who adopted her at just four months old with an ancient soul. As she grew, Saoirse discovered the truth about herself and her mother's past, and found hope in the power of love to heal emotionally enslaved societies. This poignant story follows Saoirse on a journey of self-discovery, as she uncovers the deepest bond of all - one that would change her life forever.
