Description
It was a secret adoption. Arranged by the infamous attorney, Donald T. Sterling, for the celebrated composer of The Addams Family. And it was all hidden by TV's biggest star, Michael Landon. This poignant and whimsical story begins in 1977, after a notorious lawyer buries the secret of Rafael's origin, placing him with an eccentric, well-connected family from Beverly Hills. Worried he might find out and run away, his adopted mother convinces her friends, including television's biggest star, Michael Landon, to help conceal the truth. But when Rafael begins to catch on to her lie, he's discouraged from asking more questions. He bravely embarks on an impossible quest to discover what happened, only to find himself at the center of an old Hollywood scandal that was never meant to see the light of day.

"Rafael Moscatel crafts a deeply engaging and entertaining story that will undoubtedly resonate with readers. Well-written with wit and honesty interspersed throughout, the author comes to terms with his upbringing, identity, and family's past. A truly unique story told with refreshing candor and emotional integrity." (Publishers Weekly)
"An engaging and surprise-filled memoir of a man whose true identity was kept from him well into adulthood that's full of twists and turns." (Kirkus Reviews)
"An amazing story about fighting demons and dealing with lies, loss, and rejection while growing up in Los Angeles, the City of Angels. Rafael's journey evokes a rollercoaster of emotions, from admiration to laughter to a deep feeling of empathy and comradery. His story is compelling, entertaining, and inspiring, a beacon of hope for those lost in the darkness of the human condition." (Indie Reader)
