After escaping her marriage, Jenn Galbraith hoped to start a new life with her four-year-old daughter, Emily. But Jenn’s ex-husband has other plans. Evan follows them to their new home in Vermont, determined to take their lives. He succeeds in killing himself and hospitalizing Emily. Comatose and hovering between life and death, Emily meets Tara, a little girl who’s also searching for a way back to the world of the living. Upon waking, Emily is delighted to find Tara’s presence has followed her home. Even in death, Evan seeks to stake his claim to Emily. His vengeful spirit pursues her and is repeatedly thwarted by Tara, the ghost of a child. Tara can hold Evan at bay, but she also has her own agenda. Emily is Tara’s last chance to live again. As strange events keep mounting, and the death toll increases, Jenn starts to understand that Tara is much more than an imaginary playmate. If Jenn is to save her daughter, she must learn to believe in ghosts…and then she must destroy them.

From Publishers Weekly
A macabre imagination and a tight rein on your nerves are required for McNally's (Somebody Come and Play) latest release. Her vivid portrayal of a twisted, child-molesting father trying to ravage his daughter from the grave is enough to give any reader nightmares. Determined to get her four-year-old, Emily, away from her demented ex-husband, Jenn Galbraith takes a teaching position in another state. On Jenn's and Emily's way there, the ex-husband runs their car off a mountain road, and in so doing kills himself and puts young Emily in the hospital in a coma. When Emily awakes, she has acquired an "invisible" new best friend, Tara, who claims to be the only one who can protect Emily from her vengeful father's evil spirit. This is a grisly tale made worse by the sickening notion of a ghoulish father chasing his toddler around with a pizza cutter. Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.
