What would you do if your child began saying the most shocking, offensive, vulgar things?
After witnessing her boyfriend murdered by a stranger, Neely Pfau and her ten-year-old daughter, Arial, flee to her childhood home in safe, rural Orchard, CT.
But normally sweet-tempered Arial is having trouble adjusting. She becomes insulting and foul-mouthed beyond her years. A child psychiatrist and a pediatrician blame the girl's trauma. As Arial's behavior worsens and even turns violent, Neely takes increasingly desperate measures to control her.
Then the worried mother learns a long-held family secret: her great-great-grandmother, Viola, was a notorious serial killer, and the last woman hanged in the state. Neely starts to suspect there is more behind her daughter's drastic personality changes than just trauma.
Far more.
Now Neely must free her child from the grip of evil.
Before her little girl is lost forever...

Praise for C.G. Twiles:
"A masterful storyteller... Whenever I begin reading a C.G. Twiles novel, I should cancel all my plans because it's nearly impossible not to devour her captivating stories in one sitting. ." -Liz Alterman, author of He'll Be Waiting and The Perfect Neighborhood
"One to read with your lights on and your doors locked." -Susan Crawford, bestselling author of The Pocket Wife
"[C.G. Twiles] is a master when it comes to thrillers. Nothing is ever what it seems, perception is never reality, and when things appear to be a certain way, they can suddenly and unexpectedly swerve and do a 180-degree turn." -Priya Malhotra, author of A Woman of an Uncertain Age
