FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Partners In Crime Virtual Book Tours in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.
Not Your Child by Lis Angus was a great book to read. I was sad when I finished reading because I wasn‘t ready to say goodbye to these characters. The author did a great job of keeping me guessing as I was reading. Just when I thought that I had it all figured out, I would find out that I was wrong, and I would have to start all over again trying to figure out what was going on. This book has a lot of suspense in it. If you aren’t a fan of books like that, I wouldn’t recommend this book. This is one of those books that kept me up super late more than once. I love when that happens until the following day when I have to get up super early for work. I loved just about everything about this book. The author did a great job of making me feel like I was there with the characters. The author did a great job of telling the story through different characters. Sometimes it gets confusing as to who is talking, but that didn’t happen in this book. She had just the right amount of details in this book, and I didn’t get bogged down in details. If you are looking for a suspense book that will keep you on the edge of your seat, I would recommend this book to you.

When Ottawa psychologist and single mother Susan Koss discovers that a strange man has been following her twelve-year-old daughter Maddy, she fears he’s a predator. But it’s worse than that. The man, Daniel Kazan, believes Maddy is his granddaughter, abducted as a baby, and he’s obsessed with getting her back.
Susan insists on a DNA test to disprove Daniel’s claim, but the result is one she can’t understand or explain: it says she’s not Maddy’s mother.
Then Maddy vanishes. Susan’s convinced Daniel has taken her, but he has an alibi, and two searches of his house turn up nothing. The hunt is on—police are on full mobilization, and Susan fears the worst.

Read An Excerpt
As I was putting on my coat, the doorbell rang. I looked out the window.
What the hell?
Daniel Kazan stood on my doorstep.
I went cold. How dare he? I flung open the door. “What are you doing here?” I exploded.
Confronting him, I saw that he was a few inches taller than me, and exuded a tense energy that raised my hackles. He raised his hands, palms out, a placating expression on his face. As if he were trying to calm me down or reassure me.
“I just want to talk to Hannah. I came early to catch her, before she leaves for school.”
I squared my shoulders. “Get out of here! You’ve been told to stay away from us!”
His face was in shadow. “I think it’s fair to want to see Hannah. I’ve waited a long time.”
The guy is nuts. “She’s not Hannah—she’s my daughter. Maddy.”
“You’re keeping her from me.” He was leaning toward me, and I had to keep from falling back. I couldn’t let myself seem weak. If he thought he’d intimidated me, what would be his next move?
My heart pounded. My hands were curled tight, my nails biting into my palms. “Damn right I’m keeping her from you. Now get off my porch before I call the police!”
What if he wouldn’t leave? I should call for help—but my phone was inside, and I didn’t want to leave him on the porch unattended.
