Although the story is fictional it centers on the astonishing real life history of the Tennessee Children’s Home Society orphanage in Memphis. Rill Foss and her siblings are kidnapped and put in Georgia Tann’s orphanage to later be sold to wealthy families. Switching from Rill’s story back in 1939 to Avery in present day the secrets of the past become unveiled. This emotional and riveting tale is a must for book clubs.
