A Refinery29 Best Summer Thriller An Amazon Best Book of the Month
The anxieties of motherhood take center stage in this atmospheric and very creepy debut psychological thriller that reinvents the changeling myth with the flair of Angela Carter (Guardian).
Everyone says Lauren Tranter is exhausted, that she needs rest. And theyre right; with newborn twins, Morgan and Riley, shes never been more tired in her life. But she knows what she saw: that night, in her hospital room, a woman tried to take her babies and replace them with her owncreatures. Yet when the police arrived, they saw no one. Everyone, from her doctor to her husband, thinks shes imagining things.
A month passes and one bright summer morning, the babies disappear from Laurens side in a park. When theyre found, something is different about them. The infants look like Morgan and Rileyto everyone else. But to Lauren, something is off. As everyone around her celebrates their return, Lauren begins to scream, These are not my babies.
Determined to bring her true infant sons home, Lauren will risk the unthinkable. But if shes wrong about what she sawshell be making the biggest mistake of her life.
Compulsive, creepy, and inspired by some of our darkest fairy tales, Little Darlings will have you checkingand recheckingyour own little ones. Just to be sure. Just to be safe.
Chilling story, beautiful prose.
