Perfect for you if...

You love psychological thrillers where nothing is quite what it seems and the twist lands hard in the final chapters.
You're drawn to family mysteries with high emotional stakes where the narrator's grief clouds her judgment.
You devour one-sitting page-turners that prioritise plot momentum and shocking reveals over literary flourish.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer slow-burn character studies where every plot point is thoroughly explained and psychologically grounded.
You want detailed police procedural logic and airtight forensic consistency throughout the story.
You're looking for nuanced writing about grief rather than propulsive suspense that moves faster than logic sometimes allows.

About this book

A woman believed her sister was murdered a year ago. One evening, while alone in her quiet house, she hears a knock at the door. She finds a baby on her doorstep—a small infant with deep blue eyes wrapped in a patterned blanket. Unable to determine who the child belongs to or why she was abandoned there, the woman contacts police and social services. When DNA testing is performed, the results reveal the baby is related to her. The child is her sister's daughter. But this presents an impossible situation: her sister was murdered a year ago. Miranda Smith, author of Not My Mother, presents a psychological thriller centered on this mystery and its shocking resolution.
