Query: Not my favorite

I am a Chamberlain fan, but this book does not compare to her others. The story line is contrived and rather unrealistic. I don't see how the events in this book could ever happen in real life. The main idea, a mother who takes off with her child rather than lose custody, has promise, but becomes a silly story line rather than the touching story it could have been.
