**PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS THE HEART KEEPER**
From the author of PLAYDATE, streaming soon as THE STOLEN GIRL, a major Disney+ series!
She has her heart. I want it back.
When Alison lost her daughter in a tragic accident, her world broke apart. But the world around her carried on - and Amalie's organs gave new life to sick children.
Now, as Alison descends into grief, she becomes obsessed with a phenomenon her son tells her about - cell memory, where an organ recipient takes on the mannerisms of their donor. A vegetarian develops a taste for meat. An experienced pilot acquires a fear of heights. A little girl - with a brand new heart - swears she has another Mummy.
And so Alison decides, if she can find this little girl who carries her daughter's heart, she'd have a piece of her daughter again. and she'd do anything to have her daughter back.
Wouldn't you?
A chilling thriller from the author of Playdate and The Boy at the Door, perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, TM Logan, and Adele Parks.
