Suspense Psychological
Afflicted with a chronic debilitating condition, Suzette Jensen knew having children would wreak havoc on her already fragile body. Nevertheless, she brought Hanna into the world, pleased and proud to start a family with her husband Alex. Estranged from her own mother, Suzette is determined to raise her beautiful daughter with the love, care, and support she was denied. But Hanna proves to be a difficult child. Now seven- years-old, she has yet to utter a word, despite being able to read and write. Defiant and anti-social, she refuses to behave in kindergarten classes, forcing Suzette to homeschool her. Resentful of her motherโs rules and attentions, Hanna lashes out in anger, becoming more aggressive every day. The only time Hanna is truly happy is when sheโs with her father. To Alex, sheโs willful and precocious but otherwise the perfect little girl, doing what sheโs told. Suzette knows her clever and manipulative daughter doesnโt love her. She can see the hatred and jealousy in her eyes. And as Hannaโs subtle acts of cruelty threaten to tear her and Alex apart, Suzette fears her very life may be in grave dangerโฆ
