Now, you may have heard this morning that the heel prick test will screen for two more rare conditions from today.

Now I'm delighted to be joined by author Louise O'Neill to talk about her new book, Whatever Happened to Madeleine Stone.

And this will have a huge impact on future care for children born with these rare conditions.

Louise, it's lovely to have you.

So nice to be here, Clare.

And congratulations on this.

Thank you.

I took it away with me for a weekend and I did not put it down until I finished it.
