An Only Child No More: Discovering My New Family at 54 by Martha Levallee (Martha Levallee Publishing, 2022)

NH author Martha Levallee has written a deeply personal memoir about finding family.

"This poignant, uplifting memoir describes the emotional journey of a middle-aged woman who receives an unexpected email, and suddenly learns that her now-deceased parents had kept secret from her the fact that she has a half-brother.

Raised as an only child, the revelation occurs without any DNA testing of anyone in the family. This true story describes her coming to terms with this shocking information, as she remembers vague clues that had been presented to her during her youth. It also details her quest to meet her brother and his family, and to make this family her own, despite the logistical challenges of different languages and continents." --Publisher's blurb
