A highly emotional well written story of a potentially sensitive subject. I read a previous short story by the same authorLipstick and Knickersand enjoyed it so much I didn't have to think twice about grabbing this one however, the subject matters are as far apart as it is possible for them to be.***SPOILER BELOW***Although it is what should be a heavy subject I found the story quite light, not light hearted but easy to read. It describes the emotions and the mental state of the parents very well and how they are affected with the sudden unexpected, yet yearned for, return of their daughter only to have that hoped dashed away and lose their daughter for a second time. It highlighted different aspects of what it would be like to go through such an ordeal as having a child abducted and while it was not essentially a happy ending it still left me feeling content. It is written in such as way as by the time you reach the ending you feel you have read a heart warming story and not in fact, touched on what it might be like to lose a toddler to abduction.
