by Rea Frey (Author)
Gripping, emotional, and wire-taut, Rea Frey's Not Her Daughter raises the question of what it means to be a mother--and how far someone will go to keep a child safe.
"Brings to mind Jodi Picoult...thought-provoking domestic drama." - Booklist
"Will make you miss your bedtime, guaranteed." - Bestselling author Kimberly Belle
Emma Townsend. Five years old. Gray eyes, brown hair. Missing since June. Emma is lonely. Living with her cruel mother and clueless father, Emma retreats into her own world of quiet and solitude.
Sarah Walker. Successful entrepreneur. Broken-hearted. Kidnapper. Sarah has never seen a girl so precious as the gray-eyed child in a crowded airport terminal. When a second-chance encounter with Emma presents itself, Sarah takes her--far away from home. But if it's to rescue a little girl from her damaging mother, is kidnapping wrong?
Amy Townsend. Unhappy wife. Unfit mother. Unsure whether she wants her daughter back. Amy's life is a string of disappointments, but her biggest issue is her inability to connect with her daughter. And now Emma is gone without a trace.
As Sarah and Emma avoid the nationwide hunt, they form an unshakeable bond. But what about Emma's real mother, back at home?
