What if your parents weren't really your parents?

What if somebody you loved kept a deep, dark secret from you for your entire life?

What if your real family was right next door all along?

In the summer of 2021, when author Margo Reilly published her tell-all memoir, When the Apple Falls from the Tree, she hadn't a single clue that an at-home DNA test kit would send her midlife identity crisis further into uncharted waters.

When You Shake the Family Tree is a vulnerable sharing of Margo's search for self. An emotional quest of connecting the dots that suddenly made her whole life make sense. Rejection and family secrets were themes she knew all too well. Her jaw-dropping DNA discovery journey will force you to grab your tissues and question whether you've been told the truth by your family.

Dive into these pages to learn how Margo followed her intuition to uncover who she truly is.
