The Child

Mandasue Heller

'It killed her to think that she would never again rock him to sleep in her arms after that night'

Isla Hanson has the perfect life: a big house in the suburbs and a doting, older husband, Jerry. Only one thing is missing - a baby.

When Jerry dies suddenly, Isla's world is torn apart. Especially when a young woman turns up at the funeral and claims that Jerry is her baby's father.

Isla is sure that her husband wouldn't have betrayed her, but as she listens to Melanie's story, she begins to doubt everything about the man she loved.

And she soon realises the lengths she'll go to keep the small child in her life...
