Connected: Finding My Truth by Diana Kayla Hochberg

💡 What if everything you knew about yourself was a lie?

For nearly 40 years, I believed I knew who I was. Then, in 1993, during a trip to Las Vegas, a casual remark from a family friend—a former CIA agent—shattered my world:

"You know you’re adopted, right?"

I had no idea.

That single sentence set me on an unstoppable quest for answers—one that led me into the depths of a black-market adoption ring in 1950s Montreal, where over 1,000 babies were secretly sold. As I pieced together my past, I unearthed shocking connections to organized crime, covert operations, and deeply buried secrets that turned everything I believed upside down.

But I refused to stop. No matter how many doors closed, no matter how painful the truth became, I kept searching. I had to know where I truly came from.

🔍 A story of resilience, identity, and the unbreakable human spirit, Connected: Finding My Truth blends investigative journalism with raw emotion—a memoir for anyone who has ever questioned their past or fought to reclaim their truth.
