How do you save your child from the darkness inside them-when it's already too late?
One rainy night, Jennifer Hanson comes home to a nightmare she can never unsee: her twelve-year-old son, Shane, is stabbing their family cat to death. For years, Jennifer has feared Shane's coldness, the way he's been since "that accident" with his father-a tragedy everyone calls a fluke. But now, it's clear: something is broken. Something is growing.
As her son shifts from troubled to terrifying, Jennifer is desperate to believe he can be saved. But when she discovers shocking photos of a dead girl on Shane's phone-a girl the whole town thought died by misfortune-Jennifer must face what no mother wants to admit. How do you stop a child who was born evil?
