Description

When Hannah and Christopher Larson adopt Janie, a quiet, deeply troubled child, they believe they are giving her the loving home she has always needed—and welcoming the missing piece into their family. But as Janie’s behavior grows increasingly unsettling, the Larsons find themselves confronting questions about her past, their own instincts, and the limits of parental love. A tense psychological thriller, the novel explores childhood trauma, adoption, family bonds, and the darkness that can hide beneath an image of innocence.
