Art therapist Celia Griswold works at a center for severely emotionally disturbed children in rural Oregon, encouraging them to express their feelings through drawing. When seven-year-old Davy Boyce, an "elective" mute, is brought in by his strange, threatening stepfather, Chet, Celia senses that something is very wrong with the boy - his behavior is violent and his drawings suggest abuse. She tries to communicate her concerns to Chet, but she finds herself suddenly fearful. What starts as a simple puzzle in an ordinary woman's life becomes a harrowing cat-and-mouse game. As Chet realizes that Davy's drawings may reveal more truth than is acceptable, he begins to stalk Celia.

I like psychological thrillers. :-)

First half of the book was okay, the second half was a real pageturner! I HAD to read 'til the end even though time to go to bed had passed by since long ...

Looking for new readers at today's meet-up. :-)

Thanks for bringing the book to Elmshorn. It will travel with me to Fuerteventura to be read and released...

Started slowly... but got better in the second half. Although I cannot believe the climax at all, sorry. Very phantastic, unrealistic. Bur a thriller end, where at least some of the good survive...

Enjoy travelling, little book.
Enjoy reading, dear finder, and let us know how you liked the book, by journaling it here.

Just caught this book from our hotel. He will travel with me to Finland, where I release him. 😀
