The doorbell rings, and a stranger's question changes everything: "Do you have a daughter born at St Mary's Hospital in Clapham fifteen years ago?" With those words, Alison's perfect life begins to crumble. Tom Truby stands on her doorstep with impossible news - their daughters were switched at birth. His wife recently died of cancer caused by a harmful BRCA gene mutation, prompting their daughter Olivia to get genetic testing. The results revealed something unthinkable: Olivia isn't biologically related to either parent. "I think you have my baby," Tom tells Alison and her husband Jeff. "I think there was a mix-up at the hospital." Before Tom's arrival, Alison's life seemed flawless. She lived in an affluent neighborhood with Jeff, a successful novelist, and Katherine, a lacrosse star with exceptional academic promise. Their comfortable existence revolved around Katherine - school drop-offs, sports matches, and quiet evenings of domestic bliss. Alison treasured these moments, particularly their nighttime chats when Katherine would make space for her on the bed. But beneath this picture-perfect facade lay Alison's constant anxiety. She repeatedly told herself how lucky and safe she was, "as though saying it often enough will keep it true." Her transformation from a "bolshie council-estate Scouse teen rebel" into a timid, self-censoring epitome of Home Counties respectability happened gradually. This anxiety wasn't unfounded. Alison's own childhood was marked by abandonment when her mother left, taking her three younger brothers but leaving eight-year-old Alison behind with her neglectful father. Years later, at sixteen, Alison became pregnant and was forced to give up her baby for adoption - a daughter whose face she never saw.
