She has her heart. _I want it back._**  
  
When Alison lost her daughter in a tragic accident, her world broke apart. But the world around her carried on - and Amalie's organs gave new life to sick children.  
  
Now, as Alison descends into grief, she becomes obsessed with a phenomenon her son tells her about - cell memory, where an organ recipient takes on the mannerisms of their donor. A vegetarian develops a taste for meat. An experienced pilot acquires a fear of heights. A little girl - with a brand new heart - swears she has another Mummy.  
  
And so Alison decides, if she can find this little girl who carries her daughter's heart, she'd have a piece of her daughter again... and she'd do anything to have her daughter back.  
  
_Wouldn't you?_  
  
**A chilling thriller from the author of _Playdate_ and _The Boy at the Door_, perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, TM Logan, and Adele Parks.**
