Winter's Child
About this eBook
In Elizabeth, Nichole and Jhon see the embodiment of their longings for love and family. They welcome her into their lives with open hearts, believing that the three of them will create the perfect family.
As the seasons pass, Elizabeth's demeanor shifts like the changing weather. She is shy and sweet in the spring, warm and outgoing in the summer. However, as autumn descends, so too does Elizabeth's temperament, veering towards anxiety and withdrawal. And with the arrival of the cold, dark nights of winter, a chilling transformation takes place.
Elizabeth becomes something entirely unexpected: Manipulative. Cunning. Dangerous.
Nichole's idyllic dreams of family life quickly crumble as she realizes that the foundation upon which they are built harbors nightmarish secrets. In order to protect the ones she loves most, she must summon the strength to defy her own instincts and challenge the very principles that define her as a mother.
In this gripping psychological domestic thriller, Nichole's struggle for survival takes center stage as she grapples with the unthinkable and confronts the darkness lurking within her once-promising family.
Recent reviewers have said:
"Everything about Winter's Child is absolutely terrifying."

"Excellent book! Such an original story line! I'm struggling to write this review because I do not want to give anything away. You just have to read it for yourself."
Winter's Child is a taut and chilling thriller from Christine Shuck - a gripping page-turner in the tradition of Gillian Flynn, Willow Rose, Jayne Renshaw, and Sarah Denzil.
