Acerca de esta escucha

The Foundling tells the incredible and inspiring true story of Paul Fronczak, a man who recently discovered via a DNA test that he was not who he thought he was - and set out to solve two 50-year-old mysteries at once. Along the way he upturned the genealogy industry, unearthed his family's deepest secrets, and broke open the second longest cold case in US history, all in a desperate bid to find out who he really is.

In 1964 a woman pretending to be a nurse kidnapped an infant boy named Paul Fronczak from a Chicago hospital.

Two years later police found a boy abandoned outside a variety store in New Jersey. The FBI tracked down Dora Fronczak, the kidnapped infant's mother, and she identified the abandoned boy as her son. The family spent the next 50 years believing they were whole again - but Paul was always unsure about his true identity.

Then, four years ago - spurred on by the birth of his first child, Emma Faith - Paul took a DNA test. The test revealed definitively that he was not Paul Fronczak. From that moment on, Paul has been on a tireless mission to find the man whose life he's been living - and to discover who abandoned him and why.

This is the story of Paul's heart-wrenching and tortuous journey to solve both mysteries and finally learn the truth about his identity.

The Foundling is a touching and inspiring story about a child lost and faith found, about the permanence of families and the bloodlines that define you, and about the emotional toll of both losing your identity and rediscovering who you truly are.

Although I remember this story from the news it was still a good book to read and get more detail. Like many others that have reviewed this book I agree that there was too much detail that wasn’t related to the main story. And I was disappointed in how it ended. Unlike all the other reviewers I did NOT like the narrator AT ALL. His way of reading/speaking bugged me.

Interesting Story

Very unusual book about finding answers about yourself and your past. Good suggestions for anyone who's been adopted, and wants to find their roots.

This is a great book. I only care to read or listen to true stories. And this book was exactly what I hoped it would be. To hear Paul's journey in finding himself was both heart wrenching and magical. Not only for Paul to know who he is... but the people who reached out and helped him. Put humanity and kindness for others in perspective. I applaud each of them for there selflessness. I truly pray that one day we find what happened to the real Paul and Jill. And that Paul and his brother become close.

This book keeps you on the edge...

This is a good story. It is full of struggle and the heartbreaking reality of what happened to Paul as a toddler. There are times of great joy and happiness for Paul too! This is a wonderful telling of his journey.

This story has amazing twists and turns that would fit in with any TV soap opera, but it’s a true story. I didn’t want to stop listening.

An incredible story, with equal parts detective work, scientific exploration, and a deeply personal inner journey. Very well narrated, with full range of artistic expression and emotion while remaining genuine.. In addition to being remarkably fascinating, it also tells a much more profound story of life. Deeply moving.

ASTONISHING

Crazy Story, I cannot imagine what this man went through, but this narrator's voice is just horrible. Please. I only stuck with it because of the harrowing story.

All my favorites- adoption, DNA, mystery and bizarre human behavior. Glad it had a reasonably happy ending. Loved how things ended up with the parents.

Amazing story
