    "description": "<p>It only took a moment for everything to go wrong. A little girl is hurt, but who is to blame? I&rsquo;m so happy as I walk to pick up my seven-year-old son from the birthday party. It&rsquo;s his first since we moved here, and I know he&rsquo;s found it hard settling in. Just as I&rsquo;ve found it hard to make friends among the mothers at the school gates. But as I turn the corner, my heart stops when I see an ambulance. I start to run. My son, is all I can think. I have to find my son. As I race into the garden, desperately searching for my blue-eyed little boy, a fellow parent turns to me, her finger pointed. The words out of her mouth make my blood run cold. &ldquo;Your son did this. This is your fault.&rdquo; Surely that can&rsquo;t be true? My son can be difficult, but I&rsquo;d know if he was capable of hurting someone&hellip; Wouldn&rsquo;t I? As a little girl is lifted onto a stretcher, I feel my world come crashing down. My heart cracks in two for this poor child, her devastated family. Because there&rsquo;s no coming back from this. An innocent girl has been hurt. My son is being blamed. But I&rsquo;m his mother, and I&rsquo;ll do whatever it takes to find out what really happened&hellip; A totally gripping and emotional novel about trust, female friendship and betrayal. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Liane Moriarty and Susan Lewis.</p>",
