Four-year-old Florrie is missing. Who has taken her, and what do they want?When Jane is asked to pick up her friend’s daughter, Florrie, from school, she can’t imagine the horror that will unfold. Because someone pretending to be Jane has already collected Florrie. And now the little four-year-old is missing…
Things don’t get any easier when Jane starts receiving anonymous letters that include intimate details about her life. As a psychologist and agony aunt, she's used to getting letters asking for advice, but these are different. Are they somehow connected to the missing child?
Then, to her utter dismay, Jane finds incriminating evidence in her own home, evidence that is clearly linked to Florrie. She starts to doubt everyone around her, even her own family – could one of them be implicated in Florrie’s disappearance?
Under the unspeakable stress, her marriage crumbles, her children act out and her once-successful business falls apart. And that’s when Jane discovers a shocking secret that shatters her entire world.
In a heart-pounding race against time, Jane must find Florrie and uncover the truth. Can she save Florrie and her own family, or will she be too late to stop the unthinkable?

Review By
Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews
First, I want to thank Miranda Rijks, Inkubator Books, NetGalley and Zooloo’s Book Tours for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.
O.M.G!!! Miranda Rijks you made me want to hold my nieces and nephews a little bit tighter with The Other Mother! YES!! This totally addicting, jaw dropping, mind blowing psychological thriller is Mrianda’s most entertaining read to date! I absolutely loved it and could not get enough!! My one question is how in the world will she top this one?!
WOW!! The Other Mother’s book cover instantly caught my attention as it was so dark and mysterious. It made you wonder what the book was about. Kudos to the graphic designers on this one!
Miranda is a very creative storyteller and thinks outside of the box for this book! She instantly hooked me with her unique way of luring you in. I just knew that she was going to have a best seller on her hands.
Everyone will be talking about The Other Mother. It is a book that will stick with you way after you are done with it! Why do you ask? There are many times that pull hard core on your heart strings for so many characters. There are issues in the various storylines that you will be like omg she went there! So many facets to this story to love.
Boy oh boy were there a lot of secrets kept in this book with wild revelations, wicked twists and turns that will blow your mind, and ending nobody will see coming!! Oh this book is GOOD!!
Can we talk about how unique and creative some of the character names were? Some I had never heard of like Florrie, Aurora Rae, Nala (in the copy that I received),
Etc. I just love when authors think of different names to use. Makes the story fresher.
While reading this I often wondered what was the inspiration behind this book? It was a fresh look into a missing person case! This could have been something straight from the headlines!
Oh how I would LOVE to see The Other Mother turned into a Netflix series! It would be a smash hit that would have everyone binge watching!
If you have never read a Miranda Rijks book before I highly suggest you add this to your TBR pile! It is a must read that will keep you on the edge of your seat!
