'Echidna in a Suitcase is a memoir of a woman's journey of initial hardships and her rugged road to resurrection after being placed into Catholic institutional life as an infant. Through it all she continued to look up through moth eaten blankets to see the stars. Allowing her malleable mind to dream, her spirit remained unbreakable. She had inherited a tangled ancestral twine, a twine that leads her to the man she has been searching for all her life. A remarkable journey of self-discovery and great fortune.' (Publication summary)
