The Surrogates by Consuella Harris Book Review



The deaths of two prominent businessmen on the same day of heart attacks is at first declared to be of natural causes. No investigation happens until a former law clerk hires an investigator to check into these murders, and the connection to the Lake Shore Parenting Group.
Three women became surrogate mothers through this group and their children were adopted by five couples. Once the information about their births is revealed to them, it sets in motion events none had anticipated.
The investigation into these families, their lives, and those behind the events changes everything they believe. Yet, there is still a murderer on the loose, unless the intrepid investigator can bring that person to justice.

My review:

The Lake Shore Parenting Group has been linked to 2 murders. An investigator has been retained to try to figure out what has really happened. When it is revealed that  women had been surrogate mothers with this group the problems only get worse. Who is behind all of the deals and what is the reason that they are murdered?  Surrogacy is not an easy choice. This book is full of emotions and twists and turns. I really like this book and think it was well written. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
