About the Book
A BRAND NEW utterly heartbreaking emotional family drama of love, loss and grief. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Kate Hewitt and Susan Lewis. 💔

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'This has to be one of my best reads for 2026' Reader review

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Possibly one of the best books I have ever read' Reader review

What would you do if your lost child came back...

She pouts, looking upset, and I want nothing more than to kiss her better and say 'All right then, yes. Perhaps he can come back, perhaps he will, perhaps he has!' But I can’t. I know I can’t lie to her about this...

The day we lost Josh, a part of me broke. He was only three-and-a-half years old. His twin, Ruby, suddenly an only child.

We thought we were doing as well as expected. But when Ruby comes to me and says she saw Josh – alive – I assume she’s struggling more than we realised. It’s her way of holding on. Of refusing to let go.

But then I see him too.

A boy with Josh’s same pale blue eyes, the silvery-white hair that falls across his forehead in exactly the same way. It’s more than a similarity. This boy could be Josh’s twin.

How can that be possible?

I know I have to listen to my rational brain, that this must be my grief messing with my mind. But I can’t let go of the feeling that something is going on. Who is this boy? And does someone know more than they’re letting on?

A gripping, emotional page-turner about loss, love and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her child.

'a well-written and intriguing family drama that kept me guessing until the end. The plot was pacy and storylines all weaved together into a powerful climax' Caroline Finnerty
