After a difficult pregnancy, Esther is grateful that her husband Robin offers to put his career on hold so that she can return to the job she loves.

Then one day Esther arrives home from work to find Robin and Riley are missing. As the police investigate their disappearance, it becomes clear that nothing about this modern-day family is what it seems...

Featured Reviews
Wow! What a fabulous twist at the end of this book! I was captivated by the idea of a book written around a stay-at-home father, but as usual everything is not what it seems on the surface, and as the story progresses and more things are revealed, just when you think that you know why Robin has taken baby Riley, you’re proved wrong on the next page!! I loved this book and highly recommend it... the ending was brilliant!
