**AS HEARD ON BBC RADIO 4 WOMAN'S HOUR**

What if anyone could have a baby? A boldly original and unforgettable novel from a rising star.

Now we have equality. Now we've outgrown our biology. With FullLife's baby pouch, women are liberated and men can share the joy of childbearing. Holly's whole family knows the benefits, but Eva doesn't believe society has changed for the better and Piotr has uncovered a secret behind FullLife's glossy facade. What separates them may just bring them together, as they search for the truth about FullLife and each face a truth of their own.
