Give me the child by Mel McGrath.
An unexpected visitor.
Dr Cat Lupo aches for another child, despite the psychosis which marked her first pregnancy. So when Ruby Winter, a small girl in need of help, arrives in the middle of the night, it seems like fate.
A devastating secret.
But as the events behind Ruby’s arrival emerge – her mother’s death, her connection to Cat – Cat questions whether her decision to help Ruby has put her own daughter at risk.
This was a very good read with good characters. Full of twists. I loved the story. Didn't expect that. 5*. Highly recommended. Thanks netgalley.
