Author: Ashley Audrain

Blythe is hesitant about becoming a mother but it is something her husband really wants. But when Violet is born her motherly instincts don’t kick in and she has trouble bonding with her child. She watches Violet as she grows and has concerns about what she sees in her daughter’s behaviour but her husband says she is imagining things. When their son is born it is a completely different feeling. Blythe dotes on Sam and Sam dotes on her. Until a terrible accident takes Sam’s life. But was it really an accident?

In the beginning I didn’t like the format of the book; very short chapters, often only two or three pages. But since each chapter was so short it was easy to read “just one more” and the book was finished in no time.
