Sarah and Phil love both their children, James and Lauren. The couple have the same hopes and aspirations as any parent. But their expectations are shattered when they discover that their perfect baby daughter has been born with a flaw; a tiny, but life-changing glitch that is destined to shape her future, and theirs, irrevocably. Over time the family learn to adapt and even thrive. Then one day a blood test casts doubt on the very basis of their family. Lauren is not Phil's child. Suddenly, their precious family is on the brink of destruction. But the truth they face is far more complex and challenging than simple infidelity. It tests their capacity to love, each other and their children, and it raises the question of what makes - and what breaks - a family. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

The intriguing scenario, the discovery that parents have been raising children that are not their own, biologically speaking, is handled sensitively and realistically. We see the situation through the eyes of the various characters involved, learning about their motivations both in their own words and as viewed by others. This leaves readers to form their own opinions, likes and dislikes.
We are left guessing up to the end how matters are likely to be resolved , and it is clear that, as in real life, there will be further challenges ahead. ( )
