Until Ammy takes a DNA test for a school project. At first the results are puzzling. Then disturbing. Then earth-shattering – when the IVF clinic admits a terrible mistake. 								\n				\n												\n																					The Mix-Up | Kylie Ladd\n										\n									\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n												\n																					\n										\n									\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n					About the author				\n				\n									Kylie Ladd is a novelist\, psychologist and freelance writer. Her six previous novels have been published in Australia and overseas.
