Families have secrets they hide even from themselves...
It should have been an ordinary birth, the start of an ordinary happy
family. But the night Dr David Henry delivers his wife's twins is a night
that will haunt five lives for ever.
For though David's son is a healthy boy, his daughter has Down's syndrome.
And, in a shocking act of betrayal whose consequences only time will
reveal, he tells his wife their daughter died while secretly entrusting her
care to a nurse.
As grief quietly tears apart David's family, so a little girl must make her
own way in the world as best she can.

评分Sad and touching ... 挺喜歡作者的文筆,細細的,娓娓道來,一幅幅淡淡畫麵描齣一個簡單而戲劇化的開篇和由此引齣的復雜的故事。
评分在書店逛的時候隨手抽取的,那個時候並不紅,說來慚愧,我是愛上的是它的封麵------後來迴傢細讀,纔發現當真是本好書..雙背景,雙敘述,一步一步,說齣最真的真相.
