The Secrets We Keep: Three Women Across Time
In a quiet antique bookstore in Toronto, Angela Creighton discovers a letter hidden between the pages of a donated book. Yellowed with age, the letter reveals a shocking truth: a woman named Frances Mitchell confessing to her daughter Nancy that she was adopted from St. Agnes's Home for Unwed Mothers in 1968 - and that her birth mother never willingly gave her up. Inside the envelope lies a handwritten note found in yellow baby booties: "My name is Margaret Roberts, and I am your mother. They told me I have no choice, but I will never stop loving you." For Angela, struggling through fertility treatments with her wife Tina, this discovery resonates deeply. Despite Tina's practical concerns about interfering in strangers' lives, Angela feels compelled to find Nancy and deliver this long-lost message - setting in motion a journey that will uncover decades of secrets, pain, and resilience.
