Vengeance Child
Can revenge reach out from the grave?
Jay, the orphan boy, doesn't want to hurt anyone. He tries so hard not to. Yet he has a frightening secret hidden under the ancient ruin. An object concealed because it is too terrible to see. Nurse Laura Parris is determined to protect the children in her care. After Laura meets Victor Brodman, a widower, she wonders if she can trust him enough to reveal Jay's disturbing past. That he's the only survivor of a terrifying shipwreck, and that the boy is cursed with the power to blight the lives of everyone he encounters. When Jay becomes glassy-eyed and begins to murmur a person's name over and over, that's when evil is unleashed and there is no escape for his victims. Jay is the Vengeance Child. Soon his shadow will fall over all humanity.
