About this book

Alan and Kate Marlowe are a typical, loving, middle-class couple, with four small children. But they wish they had just one more, a beautiful baby daughter. so when a strange young woman abandons her infant at their house, they view it as a blessing--a godsend--and adopt little Bonnie as their own. But not long after Bonnie's arrival, terrible things begin to happen to the Marlowes, starting with the death of their son Matthew. As the tragedies mount, Alan suspects that Bonnie is somehow responsible. Is he losing his grip on sanity? After all, surely this angelic child could not be responsible for such horrors...?"--Back cover.
