But how far would you go for a friend?
Alison was expecting a lot of things about pregnancy: the morning sickness, the bloating, the total lack of any clothes that fit. But what she didn't expect was the loneliness. Having recently moved to the suburbs, with a husband who is working all hours to make ends meet, she finds herself increasingly isolated.
So she is delighted when she meets Rebecca, whose baby is due on the same day. Bonded by their shared experiences, the two women hit if off immediately. As they grow closer, Alison is certain she has a made a friend for life, someone with whom she can share all the highs and lows of motherhood.
But when their due date comes and goes, Alison hears nothing for weeks. Maybe Rebecca is just caught up in the chaos of a newborn, but what if something's wrong? Alison is relieved, then, when she tracks her down and finds Rebecca safe and well. But relief turns to shock when her new friend denies ever meeting her... or ever having been pregnant at all.”
