A nail-biting psychological thriller with one of the biggest twists you’ll hear this year.
After choir practice for midnight mass, college sophomore Rose Grandon takes a shortcut through Harbor Park. Grabbed from behind, she is violently assaulted, beaten, and left for dead. The last thing she hears is someone singing Silent Night.
Several hours later, the police find Rose lying in a ditch. Badly beaten—but alive. As she recovers in hospital, Rose is told she’s pregnant. She has a terrible choice to make. She decides to keep the baby.
Nine months later, she gives birth to a beautiful baby girl. She names her Mary.
Rose lives quietly in her small Connecticut hometown, raising her daughter—the one good thing to come out of her horrible ordeal. She begins to get her old self back.
But her evil attacker has never been caught. He strikes twice a year. Once on Christmas Eve, once on Christmas Day. And until he’s behind bars, Rose and her baby can never be safe.
But now he’s found out he has a daughter. And that changes everything…
Twice on Christmas is an exhilarating blend of psychological suspense, nail-biting tension, and a shattering final twist. Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Daniel Hurst, T.M. Logan, Patricia MacDonald, and Shari Lapena.
