Echidna in a Suitcase is Kathleen Frances' memoir in which she reveals what life was like after being taken as an infant and placed into institutional care.

Through it all, she continued to look up, and through moth-eaten blankets, she was able to see the stars.

Her tangled ancestral twine eventually leads her to a man she had been searching for all her life.

A remarkable journey of self-discovery and of finding happiness and a sense of calm after years of chaos.
