It's 1964 and Dr David Henry finds himself delivering his wife's twins. Relieved, he sees that his son is born healthy, but recognises the signs of Down's Syndrome in his daughter's face. In a split-second decision that will haunt their family forever, he asks the nurse to take his daughter away.

A beautifully written book, so poignant and heart wrenching yet uplifting. A real roller-coaster of emotions but a fantastic read.
