Another enjoyable read by Claire Douglas about a family with three daughters. The youngest (only a few months old) gets abducted and is never found. 30 years later, the second daughter is feeling the strains of parenthood with her young toddler twins and takes up her sister's offer to stay at her vacation home in Venice while her sister watches the twins in her house together with her husband. This house swap, however, ends in disaster.

Good size chapters, told from various POVs. Good plot with a few twists.

An interesting plot when a "life swap" goes wrong for two look alike sisters, Alice and Tasha. Tasha and her husband Aaron have a blissful four days on their first visit to Venice during the house swap, while Alice and Kurt have a disastrous experience in Tasha's house in Bristol, England.

I enjoyed seeing how this played out and discovering the culprits behind the murders in Bristol. Nothing was predictable. The ending, however, was a surprise - a nod to the bond between sisters.
