When a notorious lawyer, at the request of a famed composer, meticulously conceals his origins, his adoptive mother takes every measure to bury the truth. Pulling strings and enlisting influential allies—including a television icon—she constructs a carefully crafted facade to ensure he never uncovers his past. But as he grows older, cracks in the carefully constructed facade begin to show, leaving him haunted by an unsettling sense that something is being hidden from him.

An interesting tale
Revisado: 09-21-24
An interesting memoir, beautifully written. I think the narrator's voice, Ryan Haugen, held me on even longer. He reminds me a little of Christian Slater, a laid back whiskey voice. It was perfect.
Plenty of big names are peppered throughout, which is reasonable when you live in that town, people know people who know people. But that's just the frivolous side. Rafael's life is peppered with crazy girlfriends, a lack of friends and stupid decisions that send him on the wrong tangent. Blaming his adoption on most of them though is a bit of a cop-out. He is forever searching but not sure for what.
I think the author's writing skills and turn of phrase are definitely a stand out.
