Excerpt: I vaulted out of the sofa as though I had seen a ghost, grabbed the picture, and held it to me. "Alex," I cried. "Alex!" Crazy thoughts ran through my mind. Alex would be ten years old right now, Chris's age. Alex would have floppy hair and sparkling eyes, just like Chris. Chris and Vic didn't look anything a like, either. "Sarah? Sarah?" A puzzled Vic hurried toward me. "Are you okay?" "My baby!" I whispered, whirling toward him in horror. "How could you steal my Alex?" And then the world went black as I fainted. When I awoke, I was lying on the couch with a blanket over me. Vic was holding my hand. "Oh, honey," he said. "I don't know what's happened, but we need to get to the bottom of it. I've called the police and they're on their way. And I can assure you, I did not steal your baby. Unfortunately, I may know who did. Oh, honey, I'm so sorry." He told me to stay calm and helped me drink a bit of water, and continued to hold my hand reassuringly.
