Synopsis

She was somebody's baby, but whose? A woman's entire life is turned upside down by her mother's deathbed confession: Snow Devane was stolen as an infant and is someone else's child. At thirty-one. Snow believes she has everything she wants--a successful career as a photographer, an uncomplicated life in Manhattan, good friends and some necessary distance from the mother who stifled her with caring concern. Now, suddenly, everything has changed. Snow must find answers. Who was this woman she thought she knew? What drove her to steal another woman's child? What happened to the woman who, thirty years before, turned around in a supermarket to find her baby gone! And, most importantly, who is Snow Devane?
