From the back: Naughty child, evil child, ghost child. A pretty teenager, a wild college girl, a mother of four.... Each has had a nightmare about a terrifying child. He sings to them. He clings to them long after the dream is over. Then he leads them to a dark, secluded place where his daddy punishes them. Policewoman Laura Bernhardt has had the dream. She knows a savage killer is on the loose. Who will listen when she speaks of a ghost child who died unborn...of an evil from beyond the grave? Who will hear the ghastly screams of the dying and believe her when she cries out...
