The Catholic church sold my child

Unmarried mother Philomena Lee was forced to give up her son to Irish nuns, who sold him on to rich Americans. For decades she tried to find him. A chance meeting with Martin Sixsmith eventually uncovered the truth.
It began with a chance encounter at a New Year’s party in 2004. I was trying to leave, but a woman said she had a message for me. She knew I had been a journalist and she had a friend who wanted my help to solve afamily mystery. I agreed to a meeting, and found myself embarking on a five-year quest for a man I had never met.
