Where We Find Ourselves
Novel
Many people can name celebrities who adopt children from all over the world. But what about “nameless” people, like Deborah, who has dedicated decades to running the “Home for Blessed Khmer Children”, with a handful of community supporters?
Modern-day Cambodia struggles to move on from the trauma of its past, and this story begins with new political violence that results in one of Deborah’s “children” running away. Despite her needing to continue the daily operations and care of nearly 30 other children, Deborah is pulled into a desperate search which leads her deep within the heart of Cambodia . As she travels, she is forced to re-examine the choices she has made, confronting both the joys and the sorrows those choices have brought. Where will the journey eventually lead?
