This is a review of Eyes Like Mine by Sheena Kamal. Research assistant to a small private investigation outfit in downtown Vancouver, mixed-race Nora Watts takes a 5 a.m. phone call. The grief of a couple in search of their missing daughter is unlikely to improve her lot, particularly when she is hit with the news that the missing girl is the child that she gave up for adoption fifteen years ago. Deciding to search for her daughter brings troubled Nora Watts into contact with a past that she's spent years trying to forget. It's an investigation that takes her on a harrowing journey of deception and violence - one that will eventually lead her to a final showdown with a figure from her own dark past.

And all to save a girl she wishes had never been born.
