Rebecca
Young Sarah is a woman haunted — not by ghosts, but by crippling exhaustion, post-partum depression, and the unending cries of her newborn daughter, Rebecca. In fevered snatches of sleep she imagines a Messenger from God, inciting her to unspeakable acts, and in her weakest moments his exhortations sound like sanity.<br /><br />Estranged from her mother and suffering from a deadly disconnect with her own identity, Sarah doesn’t know how to love her daughter any more than she knows how to love herself. Alone with her baby in a tiny, sweltering apartment, she will suffer. She will weep. <br /><br />But she will also endure. <br /> <br />Unforgettable and truly unique, Rebecca takes hold of you on the first page and drags you headlong into the hellscape of a tortured young mother’s mind — a journey that will end with unspeakable horror, or the triumph of a mother’s love over darkness.
