In this true story, travel with Shyrell as she discovers the truth about her mother's secrets, her marriage, her family, and ultimately herself. After suffering decades of abuse at the hands of her mother, the answer to "who" would surprisingly come through a social media platform five years after her mother's death. The "what" and "why" would take years to finally come together. All the answers to "who, what, and why" had laid dormant for almost 60 years, embedded in the heart and soul of the one person still alive who would unlock Pandora's box to the "Unspoken Truth" of her mother's turbulent past from Charleston to Philadelphia regarding her unknown baby born in 1957.
