Because of a winter storm, Dr. David Henry must deliver his own twins. He realizes that one of the twins has Down's Syndrome, so he gives the baby to his nurse and asks her to place the baby and tell his wife that the baby died at birth. The story follows both children and the hole in their lives because of the secret. The marriage between the doctor and his wife unravels because of this secret. An excellent read.. and a thought provoking book about our treatment of children who are less than perfect.
