Sweet William (The Lullaby Trilogy)

Allison McDowell looks at her life and sees things starting to improve. Ever since her first husband, Scott, burned their old house down. With the Graves place in ruins she finally feels like things are returning to normal. Except for her youngest son. William Scott McDowell is a precocious child, he acts and speaks like a child several years older. Stranger still are his seemingly multiple personalities. One acts and reacts like a normal child, the other is smarter and more cunning. A third even reminds Allison eerily of her deceased husband, Scott. Continuing Scott’s work as a writer, Allison starts telling the one story that is truly hers: her family’s time in the old Graves house. The time when her family almost fell apart; when her life was crumbling around her and she remained steadfastly oblivious. But now, it seems the terror of the Graves family home has followed Allison, her sons, and her new husband Ira. Something or someone doesn’t want Allison to write her book, and it’s much closer to home than any of them could possibly imagine.
