Deception (Illusions)

THOSE WHOM THE GODS WISH TO DESTROY, THEY FIRST MAKE MAD. Sometimes there are lies that must be said. Other times there are secrets that can never be spoken. Kendra Swain is a troubled woman whose family has been hiding secrets and lies for years. Now that her mother has finally confessed those secrets and lies, Kendra must face who she really is and where she fits into the scheme of her own life. After chasing down the parents who abandoned their ghost child to the whims of fate, Kendra is haunted in a way she never expected. Since their lives are inextricably interwoven, she and the ghost child are destined to help each other. Blackouts, time gaps, and perplexing events return with a vengeance, driving Kendra to ask new questions. Is she really going mad the way other family members have? Or is someone purposely driving her crazy? After being trapped in a corner where her very freedom is at stake, Kendra must wrestle inner demons while protecting the child growing inside her womb. When at last she breaks free of her chains, an even worse fate awaits her. Only a police detective can keep her from descending into hell. In the end, she must take matters into her own hands. When Kendra finally realizes that she's been driven to madness by her closest family members, she must come to terms with their betrayals ... by forgiving one, disowning another, and wreaking vengeance on the person she trusted most. This final installment of ILLUSIONS-a two-part psychological thriller-will have you on the edge of your seat. You may want to read it with the lights turned on.
