The Confinement

By Tessa F. Grayson

She knows it's her child. Everyone says she's ill.
Six weeks after a difficult birth, Paul brings his wife Nora and their newborn to his mother's secluded postpartum retreat - a quiet house on a lake in Oregon: fog, pine woods, almost no signal. Rest, everyone says. Quiet. Care.
But Nora, a NICU nurse for fifteen years, notices that small things about her baby change while she sleeps. The tea makes her heavy. The nights blur. And the more firmly she insists that something is wrong, the more gently everyone explains that the young mother is imagining things.
Only her body knows the truth before her mind can grasp it. And she has a single night to know her own child again - before someone trades it away for good.
A psychological thriller about what a mother knows when no one believes her. Emotionally charged motherhood suspense for readers who love a breathless domestic thriller with an unreliable narrator.
