By A Customer
This review is from: Someone at the Door (Hardcover)
A single mother is pregnant and is talking to her sister on the phone. The last the sister hears from her is "Wait, someone is at the door." She never comes back to the phone, and when the sister checks on her young autistic son, he is alone. He is trapped in a world of silence and can not tell what has happened to his mother.
This nonstop thriller will keep a reader entranced to the end when the author reveals what finally happened to the pregnant woman.
