When their baby is rushed to the hospital twice for an illness no one can identify, Dr. Darlene Stokes suspects baby Zack's mother, Dori, of Munchausen syndrome. Father Josh refuses to believe. As the legal wrangling unfolds, we get a glimpse into the lives of everyone involved: Dori and Josh, Darlene, Darlene's recently-released from prison father, the parents' lawyer, and even Zack.
Good book. I finished it last night. I started out wanting clear-cut black and white right and wrong. But as I read, it quickly became apparent that wasn't going to happen. Everyone was right and everyone was wrong. Is Dori hurting her baby? Has Dr. Stokes gone over the line? What is Josh's culpability in all of this? This is a book where you don't have the biggest question answered until the final page.
