關於本有聲書

We seem like perfect families. But our secrets must never come out ... I trust my best friend Lydia with my life. We share everything, even the things we can't tell our husbands. So when we go on a beach holiday together, it's a dream come true. One night, we treat ourselves to dinner on the beach with our husbands while our children sleep soundly in the cottage behind us. But when I go to check on them, my entire world shatters. My son's bed is empty, the window wide open, his favourite teddy left between the crumpled sheets. I stifle a scream as my worst nightmare comes true. My little boy is gone. It's all my fault. As the police question us, Lydia gives me a nervous look. She's the only one who knows I'll have to lie. Because there's something about my son that not even my husband knows. And if anyone discovers the truth, they'll never let me see my darling boy again. No one can find out my secret. No one knows just how far I've gone to have the perfect family. And I will stop at nothing to get my son back ...
