A night out. A few hours of fun. That’s all it was meant to be.
They call themselves the May Mothers-a group of new moms whose babies were born in the same month. Twice a week, they get together in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park for some much-needed adult time.
When the women go out for drinks at the hip neighborhood bar,they are looking for a fun break from their daily routine. But on this hot Fourth of July night, something goes terrifyingly wrong: one of the babies is taken from his crib. Winnie, a single mom, was reluctant to leave six-week-old Midas with a babysitter, but her fellow May Mothers insisted everything would be fine. Now he is missing. What follows is a heart-pounding race to find Midas, during which secrets are exposed, marriages are tested, and friendships are destroyed.
Thirteen days. An unexpected twist. The Perfect Mother is a "true page turner." -B.A. Paris, author of Behind Closed Doors

저자(글) Molloy, Aimee
Aimee Molloy is the author of the New York Times instant bestseller, The Perfect Mother. This debut novel centers around a group of women whose lives become indelibly connected when one of their newborns goes missing. This thrilling novel is being adapted for the big screen by Kerry Washington, who hails it as: “a gripping page-turner that explores the pressures of modern motherhood as well as a mother’s absolute worst nightmare.” Inspired by her own experience as a young mother in Brooklyn, the novel brings to light issues that many women (and some men) face after their children are born?navigating expectations and expert advice around how “best” to raise an infant-in addition to managing one’s career; maintaining a healthy, happy relationship with your partner; “getting back” your pre-baby body, etc. Early readers couldn’t put it down, calling it: “a fast-paced, twisty, engrossing read” (Megan Miranda); “a true page turner!” (B.A. Paris); and “a riveting mystery” (Kimberly McCreight). Harper will publish The Perfect Mother in May 2018.
Aimee is also the author of However Long the Night and the co-author of several works of non-fiction, including Jantsen's Gift, with Pam Cope. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, with her husband and two daughters. Learn more at www.aimeemolloy.com.

“I was hooked ... and stayed up late to finish. What do you call a book like that? Oh yeah: a page turner. And it’s a rare and wonderful thing.” (New York Times Book Review)
“An electrifying thriller-and a subtle, savvy skewering of the endless expectations of modern motherhood.” (People, Book of the Week)
“Whip-smart.... Very much in the mold of recent best-sellers like The Girl on the Train and The Woman in the Window, but it’s also a sharply drawn take on the cult of modern parenting and the particular pressure women face-from within and without-to pull it all off, flawlessly.” (Entertainment Weekly)
“A gripping page turner that explores the pressures of modern motherhood, as well as a mother’s absolute worst nightmare. I could not be prouder to be bringing this thriller to the big screen.” (Kerry Washington)
“A desperate, thrilling mystery that you’ll think you have all figured out ? until you realize you don’t.” (Marie Claire)
“A riveting psychological thriller that takes a sharp, insightful look at motherhood, The Perfect Mother explores the pressures, the hopes, the fears, and the secrets between a group of friends who realize how little they know one another when a crisis strikes.

“Molloy, a master of clever misdirection, deftly explores the expectations, insecurities, and endless judgement that accompany motherhood in this fast-paced thriller featuring a bevy of strong, smart, and realistically flawed women who, refreshingly, have each other’s backs when it counts the most. Mesmerizing.” (Kirkus Reviews (starred))
