About this listen

The year was 1912, Vallejo, California, and Guinevere set out in her horse drawn carriage to collect the rents for her husband, Henry Dierks. She loved to race along the beach roads. There was a large Pacific Fleet Naval Base on Mare Island in those days. Several of the fleet officers rented cottages as a sort of "pied-a-terre" when back from sea duty. One of these renters was Lieutenant Commander Mark St. Clair Ellis, a brilliant young officer and inventor, who shared the cottage with his wife, Elizabeth. When he opened the door, he thought that Guinevere was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen in his life, and he fell madly in love with her.

In the year 1921, in San Diego, California, Mary Jane, the middle child of three, was given up for adoption at age five. Sadly, she suffered an abusive childhood.

This is the story of her search, through the years, for the answers to why she was given up for adoption, and of her hope to be reunited with her brother and sister.

A true story of passion, betrayal, greed, and the resiliency of the human spirit to survive adversity.
