The Search of Grace

Synopsis of The Search of Grace In 1971, an eighteen month-old girl, identity unknown, is abandoned at a Montana orphanage. The orphanage randomly names her Grace. To ensure that she will never find her origins, Grace's life will be silently manipulated by her mother's wealthy and powerful east coast family. At eighteen, after two failed and traumatic adoptions, she leaves the orphanage, emotionally scarred, and arrives in Seattle three years later. Working in a medical library, Grace meets a young surgical resident who sees past her emotional barricades and provides her a measure of security to help navigate through the trench warfare of posttraumatic fear. Grace flourishes, despite her mother's family's intrusions. She then stumbles onto her deceased father's family, none of whom knew she existed. Grace's subsequent search for her mother will test her endurance and courage.
