Cover Reveal for Genevieve Gannon's 'The Mothers'

Genevieve Gannon, award-winning journalist and staff writer for The Australian Women’s Weekly, brings us The Mothers: a family drama inspired by a real-life case of an IVF laboratory mix-up. Grace and Dan who have been on the IVF treadmill since the day they got married. Six attempts have yielded no results and with each failure a little piece of their hope dies. Priya and Nick are being treated at the same clinic and while they don't face the same time pressure, the couple have their own problems. Priya is booked for her next IVF cycle the same day that Grace goes in for her final, last-chance embryo transfer. A year on, angry and heartbroken, one of the women learns her embryo was implanted in the other's uterus and must make a devastating choice: live a childless life knowing her son is being raised by strangers or seek custody of a baby that has been nurtured and loved by another couple.

The Mothers will be published in January 2020 by Allen & Unwin.
