Emily Gunnis - The Midwife's Secret (2nd Hand Paperback)
Synopsis
The gripping, heart wrenching story of a girl gone missing and an innocent, accused woman who holds the key to a family secret, from the global bestselling author of The Girl in The Letter.
It all began with a midwife's secret, long buried but if uncovered could save two families from the bitter tragedy that binds them. And prove the key that will free them all.
1969 : On New Year's Eve, while the Hiltons of Yew Tree Manor prepare to host the party of the season, their little girl disappears. Suspicion falls on Bobby James, a young farmhand and the last person to see Alice before she vanished. Bobby protests his innocence, but he is sent away. Alice is never found.
The Present Day : Architect Willow James is working on a development at Yew Tree when she discovers the land holds a secret. As she begins to dig deep into the past, she uncovers a web of injustice. And when another child goes missing, Willow knows the only way to stop history repeating itself is to right a terrible wrong . . .
