The listing, paperback-The Memory Keepers Daughter By Kim Edwards has ended.
This is an excellent book! Tearjerker at times. The very first page if critic reviews is damaged. No other damage to the book.I never fold the corners of the pages.Always use a bookmark.

Families have secrets they hide even from themselves... It should have been an ordinary birth, the start of an ordinary happy family. But the night Dr David Henry delivers his wife's twins is a night that will haunt five lives for ever. For though David's son is a healthy boy, his daughter has Down's syndrome. And, in a shocking act of betrayal whose consequences only time will reveal, he tells his wife their daughter died while secretly entrusting her care to a nurse. As grief quietly tears apart David's family, so a little girl must make her own way in the world as best she can. This also includes the first chapter of Kim Edwards' new novel The Lake of Dreams (Viking 2011).
