Synopsis

Cat’s hand rocked three cradles. One was empty, one held the biracial daughter of her husband, and the third, a daughter of their own.

Cat’s life can’t get any worse. In 1963, she's pregnant, seventeen, and on her way to a home for unwed mothers. She's alone. Her baby’s father was killed in a motorcycle accident, and her mother & father are both dead. Grieving all of them, she surrenders her son, but never forgets him. She finds a job but loses it---a victim of sexual harassment. Undaunted, she teams up with her best friend and becomes a local celebrity on a television cooking show. She meets and marries a man with a small daughter, whom she grows to love as her own. But despite searching for her son, she can find no trace of the little one taken from her soon after birth, breaking her heart.

When Cat and her husband have a daughter, finding her lost child becomes an even more important goal. Will she be reunited with her son, after years of trying to locate him? As she navigates tremendous cultural changes and personal challenges, Cat’s difficult journey reflects those taken by many women, even though it is all her own.

Read Cat’s Cradles to travel with her and learn whether she finds her son!
