Six-year-old Kate is hiding on the stairs, watching and listening. Mischievous Auntie Sandra asks Trish which of her children she loves best, and Trish blurts out, 'I love all of my children equally. All four of them.' Kate is mystified. There are only three children in the family - herself and her two sisters Jessica and Miranda.The mystery is resurrected over twenty years later when Kate's grandfather dies. His will states that the four children of his daughter should benefit. Trish drowned tragically twelve years ago after suffering from dreadful, unexplained depression, and the family believed Trish took her own life. But who is the missing child? The homeless girl Robert befriended, who is now a super model? The abusive husband of Wendy? Or someone else entirely, someone who they might never be able to find? The story traces Kate's search through a web of intrigue and deceit to its final, shocking, conclusion.
