Description
Book Synopsis
When the lines between guilt and innocence are thin, an abduction leads to a rare second chance. After her baby s cot death, Anne is in radical denial, burying the secret. In a numb reflex, she steals a child to replace hers, instinctive enough to dodge suspicion. Anne looks after the new boy very well, keeping him out of sight until his looks have changed, so the police and media are helpless. Nomi is a normal, happy Mom when her baby goes missing during a minute s absence. Her bad conscience is countered by the ravishing frankness of daughter Dilli, aged four. The lives of culprit and victim intertwine, followed by us closely. Before the mothers may meet, our judgments and sympathies are tested sharply. Narrowly shows a baffling closeness between mad and normal .About the Author
