The Wrong Child

The Wrong Child- Patricia Kay 4*



Two girls born on the same night in the middle of a blizzard. Two single parents, two separate paths...until an innocuous blood test tells one of them that they can’t be the biological parent of their child as the groups don’t link.  Nature and nurture are very different things and although the parents can see “differences” in their child-so what, we aren’t all the same are we? Will Logan’s plan work? If it doesn’t- what then?  I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. The characters are well written and although at times there is one who is rather annoying it does bring the situation to life. We have all seen this sort of thing in the media but perhaps never think about the impact it has on others rather than just those involved. Some very wise words including: “People who refused to see the truth, who always blamed others for their unhappiness were doomed to a life of disappointment”. A well written story with a very interesting premise.
