The Liberation of Ravenna Morton

A single phone call unearths a lifetime of secrets.

When April Morton is asked to contact the family of a baby her mother Ravenna gave up for adoption nearly sixty years ago, she has no idea it will set off a chain of revelations that will shake the foundation of everything they thought they knew.

The baby, long gone, leaves behind a daughter - Emse - a fiercely curious young woman who arrives with questions, grief, and a longing to know where she comes from. As Emse digs into the past, she uncovers the silences, sacrifices, and strength that shaped the women who came before her.

For Ravenna, the truth is a key to her long-awaited liberation. For Emse, it's a journey toward understanding, identity, and unexpected love - especially when boat captain Wiley Hoffman enters the picture with secrets of his own.

Spanning generations and anchored in heartache and hope, The Liberation of Ravenna Morton is a stirring story of reconciliation, belonging, and the ties that bind us across time.
