Publisher's Synopsis
"Rewrites the meaning of evil. A chilling read, it will have readers screaming for more." -Shelley Russell Nolan, author of Freak. The grisly discovery of the body of an angelic child, washed up on the beach one hundred years after the great Galveston storm of 1900, involves a pair of ghost hunters and District Attorney Callie Geisler in a terrifying struggle for survival. When an elderly woman is found dead in her home, baffled police enlist the D.A., not realizing the dangers she will face. The ghost hunters, on the trail of a demonic presence, discover it has a strange attraction to the D.A. - forcing them into an alliance and plunging them into a world of unholy horror that links past with present. Tracking the origin of the entity, they find the trail starts in nineteenth century New Orleans and leads to Galveston at the dawn of the twentieth. Together, D.A. and ghost hunters must free themselves of the evil presence before they become the next victims of The Angel Baby. "Michael Swanson's writing is breathless ... he always has one more twist up his sleeve. His grasp on what scares people ... makes chilling fun." -Chloe Thurlow, author of The Gift of Girls. Michael Swanson is the author of over one dozen books including Farlight and Evil Heights. A native of Houston, Texas, he enjoys sailing, and is an avid blues guitarist. He is always at work on his next book.
