A Desperate Mother Searches for Her Child
Step into True Colors - a new series of historical stories of romance and American crime

Widowed in Memphis during 1932, Cecile Dowd is struggling to provide for her three-year-old daughter. Unwittingly trusting a neighbor puts little Millie Mae into the clutches of Georgia Tann, corrupt Memphis Tennessee Children's Home Society director suspected of the disappearance of hundreds of children. With the help of a sympathetic lawyer, the search for Millie uncovers a deep level of corruption that threatens their very lives. How far will a mother go to find out what happened to her child?

Loosely Based on True Events

So, while this story is very loosely based on an actual true crime event, it in itself is not true. I did not enjoy the first half and only tolerated the second because I wanted to know what happened. The child abuse was extremely hard to deal with and I will admit to skimming and skipping through those scenes. Overall, I didn’t like nor did I enjoy one and I cannot recommend it.
