about the book.

Finding Tico is the story of a boy taken from chaos, separated from the only person who knew his beginning, and sent into a world where even his own name disappeared.

Raised across continents, with fragments of memory and an ache he couldn’t name, Jay spent years searching for the truth about where he came from and who he was.

His search led him to eleven siblings, and ultimately, to himself.

​

At its core, Finding Tico is about identity, belonging, and reclaiming a life that was never meant to be forgotten.

​

This book is dedicated to Jay's parents, who saved his life...twice.
