  1. 1. The Foundling

    Raised for decades as the rescued victim of a notorious infant abduction, a man embarks on a relentless investigation—poring over police files, interviewing detectives and family members, and using modern DNA sleuthing—to uncover the truth about his origins. The narrative follows his wrenching search for identity and reunion with biological relatives, the unraveling of official accounts, and the emotional and ethical fallout when scientific evidence upends the story he’d been told, while probing larger questions about parenthood, memory and the power of forensic science.
