Lives Less Ordinary

Looking for my son for 58 years, part 2

Listen Later

Bestselling writer Lesley Pearse never stopped looking for her son.

An agent once told Lesley Pearse to "write what you know", but her own story is more extraordinary than any of her bestselling novels. In this, the second episode of two, Lesley makes a selfless decision on behalf of her baby son Warren, and spends the six decades that follow searching for him.
