Little Darlings by Melanie Golding

An old woman who smelled of river water came into Lauren’s hospital room and threatened to exchange her perfect twin sons for changelings. When a month later, the boys go missing, no one but Lauren believes this is exactly what happened. She pursues the truth, courageous in her heart that she’s right and will find her own children. Golding’s skill of the craft leaves Dear Reader wondering at the human mind’s capacity for belief, invoking age-old fairytales. Fans of Angela Slatter and Neil Gaiman will appreciate Golding’s style and storytelling power. I was fortunate to receive a digital copy from the publisher Crooked Lane Books through NetGalley.
