Tiverton General Hospital at the dead of night... In a side room off the Maternity Ward a terrible crime is in progress, and Detective Sergeant Jim Rainford is soon probing the case of a missing baby. Can he allow himself to enlist the help of Vance, a smooth-talking private detective hired by the baby's distraught mother, Lorna Wells? A personality clash seems likely, and Lorna is also concerned at the behaviour of two of her friends living in a row of cottages in the village of Cheggswold: two young mums with their very own babies... or are they? When a wife-beating drunk-driver wraps his car around a telegraph pole, a result for DI Rainford seems on the cards, but the lout's battered ex seems to have a few very personal issues of her own. Can a twist in the tale allow Lorna to find baby Jonathan - and true happiness? This exciting read will stretch your sympathies first one way, then the other, before you discover yes or no!
