The Au Pair

Seraphine Mayes and her brother Danny are known as the summer-born Summerbournes: the first set of summer twins to be born at Summerbourne House. But on that day, their mother threw herself to her death, their au pair fled, and the village thrilled with whispers of dark-cloaked figures and a stolen baby. Now twenty-five, and mourning the recent death of her father, Seraphine uncovers a family photograph taken on the day she and Danny were born featuring both parents posing with just one baby. Seraphine begins to suspect that they might not be twins after all, and that there was more to her mother's death than she has ever been told. Why did their beloved au pair flee that day? Where is she now? And does she hold the key to what really happened?
