The Orphan of Manhattan
In 1886, Guillaume, Catherine and their little daughter Élisabeth leave their native France, board a steamship and set off for their dream destination, New York. However, their dream of freedom soon turns into a nightmare – and little Élisabeth is left abandoned in the middle of the American metropolis. By chance, she is brought together with the wealthy Mr and Mrs Woolworth, who take the lonely little girl in. Élisabeth, from now on Lisbeth Woolworth, grows up pampered like a princess. On her sixteenth birthday, however, she learns the truth about her origins and begins a determined search not only for what exactly happened, but also for her family on the old continent. However, it's not just joyous reunions that await her…
A romantic saga about growing up, maturing, finding one's identity in a rapidly changing world between America and Europe, and about what the word family really means.
