From the back cover:
"Deep in the hills of Appalachia, someone is stealing babies. Without a trace or a reasonable explanation, pregnant women are disappearing, targeted for the precious commodity they carry.
Emma Weston is a modern midwife in the tradition-bound town. Raised in Shelter, she understands the women she's trying to help. And when her best friend seems involved in the disappearances and her own sister becomes endangered, Emma is determined to reveal the truth.
There's only one man she can trust. Though their views of modern medicine clash, Griff Cusak, the town's new doctor, and Emma share one thing: a deep sympathy for their patients. Battling resistance from a town locked in the past and an increasing danger from an unknown enemy, the two stumble into a dark world of terror in an effort to expose ... the baby farm."
This is an average thriller; all of the usual ingredients are present, but they're not used as effectively as they could be, and so the tension and suspense aren't as strong as I'd hoped for when I picked this book up. But it passed the time nicely, and now it's time for me to set this book on its way to find other readers.
