The Demon Child — Deanna Dwyer

FREYA
was seven, a beautiful child. When Jenny Brighton came to the ancestral home of her cousins to recover from the horror of the sudden death of her parents, she fell in love with the little girl. With her brother Frank, Freya could have stepped from a portrait of idealized childhood. But the beauty was on the surface only; the guileless blue eyes hid the secret of an inheritance of long dead evil. For Freya was possessed by something from the dark. The child would slip without warning into a strange trance…and Death would stalk the grounds of the Brucker Estate. The first victims were animals but soon the taste of blood became too strong for the unseen stalker to resist, and Jenny found herself plunged into a nightmare world…where she was marked as the next victim!
