Bless the Child
"Spine-tingling . The suspense, which rivals the best of Stephen King, builds until…the final, chilling conclusion." – West Coast Review of Books
"Seductive... spellbinding... an unrelenting sense of foreboding drives the narrative forward with power and speed." – Publishers Weekly
Maggie O' Conner is a forty-two-year-old grandmother. She is also about to battle with Satan... she just doesn't know it yet.
What if your drug addicted daughter left a newborn baby on your doorstep and disappeared? What if she came back three years later and took the child you love into a satanic cult? And, what if that child turned out to be mankind's last hope in the war between Good and Evil? Would you risk your soul to save her? Maggie O'Conner is about to answer these questions... maybe with her life. A vibrant, attractive, recently widowed partner in a Manhattan antiquities shop, she is too young to be a grandmother. Yet the love and the bond between her and her little granddaughter Cody is deep and rare enough to make her fight – not just for custody, but for the child's life itself. The law won't back her up. But the exorcist priest believes. And the rabbi who practices Kabbalah knows too much not to believe. And ancient, raging memories of an Egyptian prophecy are rising within her own terrifying dreams. Everybody wants this child. Even the Devil. And time is running out.
BLESS THE CHILD. You'll be touched to the heart, and chilled to the bone.
