How would you react if you were told that your child was not your own and had been mixed up with another shortly after birth?
This is exactly what happened to Maddie and Pete and they were soon living a nightmare situation from which there seemed to be no end.
Maddie had a difficult birth with Theo, born prematurely and transferred to an intensive care baby unit shortly after birth in a private hospital. Little did she know that the baby she has been caring for is not her natural birth son. After Theo’s biological father Miles turns up and drops the bombshell on the couple they find themselves fighting law suits and police investigations, all of this orchestrated by seemingly psychopathic Miles.
A great read and an insight into the difficulties of motherhood and postnatal depression which has been touched upon in a sensitive manner. This situation that Maddie and Pete find themselves in is surely every parent’s nightmare.

I read the ending twice cause I was

Wow! I blazed right through this book to find out what would happen in the end. A fascinating thriller with a despicable psychopath.

I went into this book slightly blind, thinking it was a heartwarming story. Babies switched at birth, two families coming together. I'm glad I was wrong.

JP Delaney quite literally never disappoints. His books are always so unique. There are so many thrillers that follow similar patterns or storylines and his books are always just in a league of their own. Highly recommend for thriller mystery lovers.
