A Gripping Memoir of Adoption and Twin Sisters' Search for Their Roots....

 A Peek Inside International Adoption

"The narrative voice is powerful and clear and the prose good. The Search for Mother Missing: A Peek Inside International Adoption asks important questions related to the rights of children adopted internationally, explores the challenges they face, and the anguish of being disconnected from one's true parents. It is poignant, insightful, and gripping, filled with humanity." - Christian Sia

Janine Myung Ja Searches for the Truth About Korean Adoptees...


For Janine Myung Ja and her sister, Jenette, these are not imaginings but everyday life. Adopted into the United States from Korea when they were very young, the two women have next to no information about their original family and very little detail about the circumstances of their adoption. In order to answer her own questions and those of other adoptees not only from Korea but around the world, Janine has spent years researching the questionable practices of adoption agencies. She has written books on the topic and formed a support network for those in similar situations.
