Some secrets are packed in a suitcase. Others are buried in the steam
Rangiora, New Zealand, 2002. Niamh Essie Sanderson has always known her mother, Rachel Mary, as a woman of quiet strength and unshakable grace. But when a frantic search into their Irish heritage leads Niamh to a shuttered convent in County Cork, she finds a record that shouldn?t exist.
According to the dusty ledgers of the Magdalene Laundries, a woman named Rachel Mary never left Ireland. She didn?t marry a Kiwi bloke. She didn?t raise a daughter in the Canterbury sun. Instead, she was a penitent-an obedient shadow who fainted in the caustic fumes of the laundry vats until the silence claimed her.
As the ground in Ireland begins to give up the secrets of its unmarked graves, Niamh is forced to ask: Who is the woman living in her home in Rangiora? And who was the Black Sheep sister the family left behind in the dark?
In a journey that spans two oceans and forty years of lies, Niamh must find the truth of a girl who was stripped of her name-and a secret child named Hope who was never supposed to be remembered.
