Summary

We all want different things. Francie wants to be the perfect mother. Nell wants to escape the past. Collette wants to spend more time with her family.

All Winnie wants is to have her baby back. When Nell suggests a night out in Brooklyn to her new mums club, the others jump at the chance. But the evening takes a tragic turn when single mother Winnie learns that her six-week-old son, Midas, has been kidnapped.

As the investigation hits a dead end, Nell, Collette and Francie make it their mission to succeed where the police are failing and bring baby Midas home. But as Winnie and those around her come under scrutiny from the media, damaging secrets come to light, and friendships are pushed to the limit.

Because people will do almost anything to protect the ones they love....

Not so perfect after all....

Thought the narrative on this was good and really helped the story which was lacking for me. I couldn't see anything gripping or thrilling Im afraid. This is supposed to be about a group of mothers' turning detectives when they feel the Police are not doing enough to find Midas a baby missing from their group. This is misleading as Midas' disappearance is only on the fringes of this book. The whole thing is just about the day to day lives of the other mothers'. It was quite boring to be honest. I am glad Ive finished it and certainly would not recommend it.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
