Eve's Stepchildren

Grace is the daughter of Holocaust survivors; Roger is a descendant of people who came over on the Mayflower. Despite their families' objections and their own very different social and political outlooks, they married.

Now they want a child, but because of fertility issues they are opting for adoption the child of a young woman from South America with her own compelling heritage.

Eve's Stepchildren is the story of the lies we tell ourselves and each other to preserve family myths, and how couples are torn apart and brought together by the challenges they face.
