What would happen if you discovered that your family isn't really yours? To what extent would you go to keep them safe? Insane new psychological thriller from The Girl Before's best-selling author....
One morning, Pete Riley answers the door and lets in the greatest nightmare of a parent. Miles Lambert, a stranger, shows up at his house and delivers the heartbreaking news that Pete's baby Theo isn't really his son after all; instead, he is the Lamberts' son, who was switched at birth by an overworked hospital and sent home with Miles and his wife, Lucy. Life will never be the same for Pete, his partner Maddie, and the young son they have been parenting for the previous two years.
Reeling from the shock, the two families enthusiastically weave their very different lives together in the hopes of becoming one unique modern family, finding solace in their shared good intentions. However, a plot to sue the hospital sets off a formal inquiry that raises some unsettling issues regarding the night their kids were switched. To what extent can they trust their fellow parents, or perhaps just one another? What mysteries lie beyond the lustrous front door of the Lamberts? After being pushed to the brink, Pete and Maddie realize they will do whatever it takes to protect their family.
Their nice-playing is over.
