Sweet Child of Mine
It surprised no one when Sarah and Jack married right out of high school; not because Sarah was pregnant at 19, but because they had been inseparable since sophomore year. Sarah gave birth to twins, Mark and Julie, and a year later, Jacob. They had the 'mom and apple pie' life. Their picturesque dream life turned into a nightmare when on a warm summer's day at the local park, the penny dropped. What would forever be referred to as The Incident changed their family forever.
Four years later, they welcomed Christian into their home. The foster child turned adopted son never understood why Sarah was overprotective, but dutifully obeyed all her restrictive rules. When he started acting out, the couple were desperate to find out the cause of their son's bizarre behavior. However, when Christian tells them about his friend they realize just why they are suffering at the hands of their son.
When it comes to family, it's the ties that bind…

This book was a wild ride, I was not sure what to expect going in (as I did not read the blurb, just picked it up as the next in the series) but I was pleasantly surprised. Being the third in a series I thought it would just be more of the same, a murder happens and we figure out who did it, however the paranormal elements were done subtly for the most part and it did feel like it fit well, all things considered. I had been wondering when/how Shuller would become involved, and his involvement (while brief) did bring the main story to a turning point.
