Publisher's Synopsis
Lena was a scared, timid child who survived the tragic deaths of most of her biological family and then found a safe haven with an adoptive family. But eventually her adopted mother commits suicide. Ten years later, Lena reluctantly joins a therapy group where she makes friends and meets Alex who clearly finds her attractive. Lena doesn't like his attention, but she thinks it's because of her own hang-ups from her past. As Lena's family lets Alex move into their family circle, she finds herself more and more disturbed by the persistence of his attentions. She engages in active maneuvers to dodge the man but concludes that he's obsessed, and she begins to feel frightened.
Note: This POINTS TO PONDER BOOK may be used as a springboard for discussion of suicide, but does contain violence and offensive language.
