Two sisters who never met. Two decades of intimate journals. One tragic ending.
A Ghost Comes Calling tells of one woman's journey to understand herself, her birth family, and especially her lost sister. Author and adoptee Rebecca Titchner turns to her sister, Dana's, writings to explore why she disavowed her family and left her husband and children. Instead of finding happiness, Dana was murdered by a man she believed was promised to her by the gods. Through Dana’s story, Titchner digs deep into her own past and the undeniable impact adoption has made in her life.
A Ghost Comes Calling is a memoir that explores the complexities of family, relationships, loss and mental health.
