Description
On what should be the happiest night of Adrian's life, his world is turned upside down by a strange package left on his doorstep.
“Please take care of my daughter. Her name is Abigail.”
But there is something strange about baby Abigail ... something very wrong.
A wash of emotion overcomes Adrian, and he is compelled to take care of her. His life is turned upside down and he can't help but notice that it all centers around Abigail, who appears to have a mysterious effect on anyone who comes in contact with her. How can Adrian care for such a strange creature, where could the child have come from, and what exactly is she?
But for every answer, there are even more questions about the child with violet eyes, reptilian skin, and horns. The unimaginable ending will offer the reader a glimpse into their own demons and the evil that resides within us all.
Expect the unexpected from this short novelette with a twist you'll never see coming.

“This was such a creative novelette. I really liked the character focus and absolutely loved little Abigail. I was really engaged in the story when...plot twist. I was not expecting that at all, and it was a very entertaining twist.”
