Night Cry

About this book

There are all kinds of fearful night noises on the backwoods farm where Ellen lives often by herself because her salesman father travels a lot. But more than anything Ellen is terrified of their horse Sleet who had thrown her brother a year ago and killed him. Then a local boy is kidnapped and to Ellen the woods are full of devils and demons. One morning she is awakened before dawn by a cry--is it a "night cry" or the cry of the kidnapped child? Does Ellen have the courage to venture out into the dark and find out?
