Overview

"Advanced praise for From a Desert City by the Sea: ""The suspense of the search and DNA was intriguing... so haphazard at first then so coldly exacting in the end....Michele has managed to weave secret adoption, reunion and the forgotten role of birth-fathers into a work of art that reads like a murder mystery.

Michael Hering, father of two, parent of one ""[T]he story [is] engaging, the writing fluid...real characters."" Ridghaus, ""Six Word Adoption Memoirs"", Adoptee Voices Writing Group ""AWESOME!"" Rob Manzanares, a father in ""The Red Pill"" documentary on men's rights"

ONE NIGHT two dissimilar men, Clay Dennen, a North American family man and seasoned executive, and Ryuji Kato, the sharp-witted, executive producer of Japan's top morning show, meet in a seaside lounge and leave with the other's darkest secret. See how their stories ravel and recombine. EVERY YEAR THOUSANDS OF MEN father children later placed for adoption or donor-conception. Some of them thought they would forget. Some claim they never knew. There are several million of these secret fathers in the United States alone-in the Birth-Fathers' Club Series eight of them are about to get a knock on the door.
