Description
"The Screaming Child is a dark marvel. Both bone-chilling and moving, it excavates a grief so intense it sharpens into obsession. Swiftly told and full of surprises, it hums in your brain long after you reach its haunting final pages." -Megan Abbott, author of Beware the Woman
"When a mother's son goes missing fresh off reports of a local murder, the sanctity of domestic routine is shattered, sending both our protagonist and readers into a quick-paced, mournful descent that only Adlerberg can conjure with such stark deftness." -Michael J. Seidlinger, author of Anybody Home?
"[...] a haunting blend of horror and mystery that trails a woman marred by tragedy who buries herself in her work, only to find herself yanked out by the terrifying sounds of her own missing child's torment." -Alex Segura, bestselling author of Secret Identity
"Presenting itself as a run-of-the-mill missing-child thriller, [The Screaming Child] hauntingly transforms into an emotionally resonant portrait of grief, a psychological study of one woman's attempt to come to terms with a horror that may never have resolution." -Becky Spratford, Library Journal
