I started reading this book in the afternoon and by night I had finished the whole thing (even though it was really short). The story picks you up and doesn't let you go until the end. The whole book is beautifully written and I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Horror novels or just Literature itself. The storyline is simple but yet horrifying. A couple with four children welcome a pregnant woman into their home and within hours of her mysterious visit, she has a baby girl. That night she takes off and the couple are left with the baby. They decide to adopt it and take it in for their own. But then their 7-week-old son dies struggling in his bedding. Soon more of the couple's children start dying mysteriously. I don't want to give away too much of the plot. Once you pick up the book, it's hard to put it down. The downside is that it's extremly hard to find because it's out of print. This book shouldn't be missed so I encourage you to try to find it on ebay or at your local library if you can't get a hold of it. It's a shame that such a classic story as this should be missed. The mix bettween love and evil is tested to the ultimate limits and asks if you will do anything for love or for evil.
