Her Daughter's Mother
Her Daughter's Mother is, according to Randle Browning writing in the Los Angeles Review of Books, a "psychological thriller, part murder mystery", "a deep dive into the oft-underrepresented world of infertility, pregnancy, and motherhood"—"from fertility treatments to egg donation to surrogacy to adoption"—"including all the medical, legal, and emotional obstacles women face".
