Amazing debut! I don’t normally read this type of book but something about the synopsis grabbed my attention. I’m so glad it did! It was hard to put this book down. The story hooks you early and has both great plot and character development throughout. While this is a work of fiction, I love that the author chose this medium to help bring awareness to the illegal adoption/trafficking of Marshallese children within the US.
