ANOTHER MOTHER - SUSAN SPINDLER TASCHENBUCH

'A gripping read...for fans of Apple Tree Yard' Cosmopolitan Ruth Furnival has built the life
she always dreamed of: a stellar career in television  a lovely home  a lawyer husband and two
grown-up daughters. But at 54  with an empty nest and the menopause behind her  she feels
restless and dissatisfied. After multiple rounds of failed IVF  her elder daughter Lauren is
told that the only way she and her husband can have a child of their own is through surrogacy.
So when Ruth discovers that  with the right dose of hormones  she could carry their baby  they
agree out of desperation. At first Ruth is buoyed by a new sense of purpose  but as her
pregnancy progresses  long-buried events from the past resurface. Meanwhile Lauren can't
contain her corrosive envy. Isolated and alone  Ruth starts to unravel and what began as an act
of altruism turns into one of atonement - for which she's willing to risk everything.
