Claire has a wealthy loving dad and a romantic husband who only has eyes for her.  Her perfect life led her to obsess about the one missing bit, i.e., having a baby, something which has so far proved impossible.  But suddenly Claire learns a fact about her husband which sends her off the edge.  A fast moving psychological whodunnit with some truly unique twists and turns.
