Claire Cook wiedzie idealne życie u boku kochającego męża. Małżeństwo z zamożnym politykiem, luksusowe mieszkanie na Manhattanie i żadnych powodów do zmartwień. Ale to tylko pozory. Za zamkniętymi drzwiami ich domu nic nie jest takie, jak się wydaje. Apodyktyczny mąż nie dość, że nie potrafi zapanować nad swoim wybuchowym charakterem, to jeszcze śledzi każdy ruch żony, aby zyskać pewność, że Claire jest w stanie sprostać jego wygórowanym standardom. I choć kontroluje ją na każdym kroku, to nie wie, że Claire od miesięcy planuje ucieczkę. Pewnego dnia na drodze Claire staje inna kobieta, której sytuacja jest równie dramatyczna. Poznana w barze na lotnisku Eva, tak samo jak Claire, zrobi wszystko, by raz na zawsze zniknąć.

Wierzą, że w ten sposób uda im się zacząć wszystko od nowa. Kiedy lecący na Karaiby samolot ulega katastrofie, Claire staje przed niełatwą decyzją: może ukraść tożsamość Evy, z całym bagażem skrzętnie ukrywanych przez nią sekretów. Czy przyparta do muru będzie miała dość odwagi, by wykorzystać swoją szansę?
Lisa Genova meets 23andMe in this exploration of the genetic and emotional ties that bind, as debut author Julie Clark delivers a compelling read about a young boy desperate to find his place in this world, a mother coming to terms with her own past, and the healing power of forgiveness. The powerful forces of science and family collide when geneticist Paige Robson finds her world in upheaval: Her eight-year-old son Miles is struggling to fit in at his new school and begins asking questions about his biological father that Paige can’t answer—until fate thrusts the anonymous donor she used into their lives. Paige’s carefully constructed life begins to unravel as the truth of Miles’s paternity threatens to destroy everything she has grown to cherish. As Paige slowly opens herself up—by befriending an eccentric mother, confronting her own deeply buried vulnerabilities, and trying to make sense of her absent father’s unexpected return—she realizes breakthroughs aren’t only for the lab. But when tragedy strikes, Paige must face the consequences of sharing a secret only she knows. With grace and humor, Julie Clark shows that while the science is fascinating, solving these intimate mysteries of who we are and where we come from unleashes emotions more complex than the strands of DNA that shape us.
