'Neva Bradley, a third-generation midwife, is determined to keep the details surrounding her own pregnancy - including the identity of the baby's father - hidden from her family and co-workers for as long as possible.
'Her mother, Grace, finds it impossible to let this secret rest, even while her own life begins to crumble around her.
'For Floss, Neva's grandmother and a retired midwife, Neva's situation thrusts her back 60 years in time to a secret that eerily mirrors her granddaughter's-a secret which, if revealed, will have life-changing consequences for them all.' (Publication summary)
