British journalist Andrew Pierce documented the search for his birth mother in his book, Finding Margaret. In this episode of the Indie Book Club podcast, hosted by Cathy Evans, Pierce opens up about the deeply personal and emotional journey behind the book — from his early years in a Cheltenham orphanage, through a loving adoption, to the complex and often painful process of reconnecting with his birth mother, Margaret. With humor, honesty, and vulnerability, Pierce describes the psychological impact of adoption, the challenges of unearthing long-buried family secrets, and the catharsis of writing his first book, which has since become a Sunday Times bestseller.
