His son, born first, is perfectly healthy, but the doctor immediately recognizes that his daughter has Down syndrome. Rationalizing it as a need to protect Norah, his wife, he makes a split second decision that will alter all of their lives forever.

It is also an astonishing tale of love and how the mysterious ties that hold a family together help us survive the heartache that occurs when long-buried secrets are finally uncovered.

    Fast ship, well packed, just as described, excellent transaction! Would definitely buy from this seller again. The book itself is a classic favorite of mine but I was dismayed to see Purple House Press had "slightly revised" it. I looked this up on their website and learned in FAQs, they CENSOR the classics, "it means we’ve replaced some words which are considered divisive at this time or whose meaning has changed over the years." They don't keep a list edits, so it could be anything.

    Five-star transaction. Quality item, exactly as described, shipped quickly. Although this book was available from other Sellers, I purchased from this Seller mainly due to feedback. Saw some bad reviews for some other Sellers and felt most confident with this Seller. My confidence was rewarded with a very pleasant, professional transaction at a competitive price.
