Every Father's Fear

Joanna Warrington
4.55/5 (462 ratings)
Only a handful of people know what really happened on a London maternity ward in February 1961 when a thalidomide baby was born and a shocking crime committed. Those involved will pay a heavy price for their secret.

That baby, Toby, is now a teenager. Rona, the woman he thought of as his mother, is dead. Left to raise Toby alone and run a business, grieving Bill soon discovers the demons his wife battled with, as he battles his own.

Living with his disability and coping with the appalling attitudes of those around him, Toby, not wanting to burden Bill, faces his tormentors alone. A brutal attack with disturbing and heart-wrenching consequences changes their lives forever.

Meanwhile, a young journalist, keen to publicise the plight of the thalidomide families across Britain, finds out more than he bargained for.

This is a powerful story of revenge, lies and secrets, the enduring power of love and a triumph for fatherhood. Loosely based on true events in 1970s Britain.

This is the sequel to ‘Every Mother’s Fear.'
