Synopsis

For fans of Liane Moriarty and Dorothy Koomson, this is an emotional, gripping and suspenseful family drama of secrets and intrigue. It's a story for mothers and daughters, about the battles between them, but also the everlasting bond that they share.

Until now, Steffie has been proud of the decisions she's made as a mother - even when she battled with her husband's infidelity and resolved to raise their daughter, Jemima, alone. But now Jemima has the chance to pursue her own dreams of becoming a ballerina, which means her leaving home at the age of ten. And Steffie finds herself faced with that most unbearable of parental decisions: to keep her child at home, or to give them the wings to fly.

She knows what's right. And so does her husband. But will Steffie ever forgive herself if something goes wrong?

Especially given the dangerous and devastating secret she's kept hidden for so many years.

Goodreads review by Hannah on January 26, 2018

I found the start of this book a bit slow but it did get better, I like the fact that where the book was set in Dorset, Wimborne I know very well as I lived there for a time and my parents live in Dorset. The scary thing was that I have regularly been to the Royal Surrey Hospital too as that is wher......more

This book was okay, although the theme were especially interesting to me. It also felt like a book of thirds; the first 10 chapters were hard to grab much interest. The middle was intriguing and began to build a better story. The last few chapters were equally drawn out with lots of metaphors and ye......more
