The dream daughter
(Book)
Description
"When Caroline Sears, a young woman widowed by the Vietnam War, receives the news that her unborn baby girl has a heart defect, she is devastated. It is 1970 and she is told that nothing can be done to help her child. But her brother-in-law, a physicist with a mysterious past, tells her that perhaps there is a way to save her baby. What he suggests is something that will shatter every preconceived notion that Caroline has. Something that will require a kind of strength and courage she never knew existed. Something that will mean a unimaginable leap of faith on Caroline's part. And all for the love of her unborn child"--Back cover.
