Bye Baby

NOW

My mother has a secret. 

It’s not something we’ve ever really spoken about. 

But now, after more than forty years, she’s finally ready to reveal her troubled past. 

I’m just not sure I’m ready for what I’ll find out.


THEN 

London, 1970.

Unmarried, pregnant and alone – young Irishwoman Bridget Reilly has nowhere to go and no one to turn to when she gets the shock of her life at just twenty years of age. 

Banished to an institution for unmarried mothers and their babies, the future for Bridget and her child is anything but certain. 


Bye Baby is a story for any parent who’s endured adversity for the love of their child. A fast-paced, witty and heartbreaking, yet ultimately uplifting, tale.
