About The Adopted Daughter
"Alice and Richard are happily married and about to achieve their lifelong dream - giving up their jobs to sail around the Mediterranean on their own boat. But shortly before they are due to leave, a young woman, Sally, appears on their doorstep and says she is Richard's daughter, given up for adoption by his former lover. After he gets over the shock, Richard is welcoming to Sally, but Alice is unsettled. Discovering that Richard is a father is a painful reminder of her own desire for a family and her inability to conceive. But is this what makes her wary of Sally, or is her intuition trying to warn her that something much darker is happening here? When one suspicious incident follows another, Alice starts to dig into who Sally really is and why she has suddenly come into their lives. What she finds is something she could never have imagined in her wildest nightmares..."--Page 4 of cover.
