About the book: 2023 / This book is about the victims of the sensational adoption scandal. From 1924 to 1950, Georgia Tann trafficked children for the Tennessee Children's Home Society. She gave up more than 5,000 children for adoption, declaring them orphans, hiding the fact that many of them were stolen from poor families and from women who were told in the maternity hospital that their children had died. A poignant, sometimes shocking story about the cynicism of evil, hope and resilience in the face of the harshest circumstances.
