Two lost men, each with a shot at redemption that's bound to a mysterious manuscript.
Kichiro Nakamura has lived on the edges of two cultures, a white foundling raised by Japanese parents in a small California fishing village. He dreams of getting published in the science fiction pulps, but the bombs that fall on Pearl Harbor destroy that dream. Struggling to hold on to his fragile identity, Kichiro must decide who he wants to be, but in a world torn by war and heartache, every choice means losing part of himself.
Decades later, recently bereaved professor Derek Chandler discovers a manuscript concealed in a former mental hospital and finds comfort in the distraction of searching for its author. But the search seems to die in a village that was levelled during World War II. There's one old woman who may still know the truth, but she's not talking, and her tattoo-artist granddaughter is blocking Derek's attempts to get any closer to the answers he seeks--answers he needs if he's going to complete his own healing journey.
Moving between modern and historical Los Angeles, Foundlings portrays grief, obsession, and redemption, along with the desperate need of the lost to be found.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Greenworld Books, Arlington, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
