Back to the Beginning
Remarkable True Stories of Adoption Searches & Reunions
From the Case Files of Research Etc.
"The rollercoaster of emotions will move you to have a better understanding of 'why' and 'how' an adopted person and a birthparent feel the need to go “Back to the Beginning” of the person they are searching for."
~ Rachel, California
"I've read it twice and recommend it to every single person involved in the adoption process. Then I'd recommend it to every person outside of the process." ~ Judy Starbuck, Scottsdale, AZ
"The investigators who wrote this book are not 'typical' private investigators. They are more like crusaders out to help people whose 'normal' family pattern was disrupted and who rarely have anywhere to turn."
~ Leroy, Oak Harbor, WA
"As a psychologist who has helped many clients get the courage to begin a search, and someone who just enjoys reading, I highly recommend Back to the Beginning." ~ A Psychologist, Phoenix, AZ
"From the ins and outs of Private Investigation to the beautiful, touching and heartwarming stories, I could not put it down!" ~ C. Briskman, Vashon Island, WA
"Lots of twists and turns and human drama, both happy and sad." ~ A Police Officer, Tempe, AZ

Research Etc. Publishing®
Released in May, 2008, this book is a compilation of true adoption search stories from the case files of Research Etc., and offers a fascinating glimpse into the often secretive world of search and reunion from the viewpoints of triad members and the investigators who worked on their cases.
Adoption searches are unique to each person involved. Some clients simply want medical histories. For others the stakes are much higher:
- A daughter seeking to understand the trauma her birthmother went through at the time of relinquishment
- A son wanting to set the record straight on his own family history
- A birthfather who never even saw his daughter when she was born, but never forgot her
- A birthmother who wants reassurance that she did the right thing when she placed her child for adoption 21 years ago.
This book offers not only true reunion stories that touch the heart, but invaluable experience in understanding the dynamics of adoption reunions from the perspective of all those involved in the Adoption Triad.
