About this item

by Tia Heard (Author)

What becomes of a girl the world forgot-before she could even speak her name?

Born in the shadows of northern Vietnam, abandoned as a child, and raised in the quiet chaos of an orphanage, this is the story of a girl who survived the unimaginable before she even knew what survival meant. Adopted into an American home filled with love and possibility, she carried with her more than just a new name, she carried ghosts.

In this soul-baring memoir, Tia Heard peels back the layers of memory, identity, and inherited silence. From muddy rice fields to American suburbs, from the ache of abandonment to the strange comfort of self-reliance, she paints her life in scenes that are both haunting and luminous.

Told with searing honesty and poetic grit, this is not just a story of survival; it's a reckoning. A search for truth in the ruins of childhood. A love letter to resilience. A map back to the self.

For anyone who has ever felt like a stranger in their own skin, this book is for you.
