Stolen Babies of Spain chronicles how and why baby-stealing began in Spain just after the civil war of 1936 - 1939.

Using more than 300 interviews conducted by the authors, many of them exclusive, Greg Rabidoux and Mara Lencina reveal the personal stories of the adults who were stolen babies as they search for their biological parents and their true origins.

En av kollegorna begav sig hem till Bosses lägenhet och knackade på dörren, men fick inget svar. Även nästa dag saknades Bosse på arbetsplatsen, och hans vänner började befara det värsta.
