Pete Riley answers the door one morning to a parents worst nightmare. On his doorstep is Miles Lambert, who breaks the devastating news that Petes two-year-old, Theo, isnt Petes real son - their babies got mixed up at birth.

The two families - Pete, his partner Maddie, and Miles and his wife Lucy - agree that, rather than swap the boys back, theyll try to find a more flexible way to share their childrens lives. But a plan to sue the hospital triggers an investigation that unearths disturbing questions about just what happened the day the babies were switched.

And when Theo is thrown out of nursery for hitting other children, Maddie and Pete have to ask themselves: how far do they want this arrangement to go? What secrets lie hidden behind the Lamberts smart front door? How much can they trust the real parents of their child - or even each other?

An addictive psychological thriller, perfect for fans of The Silent Patient and Shari Lapenas The Couple Next Door.
