Description

Nicholas Sparks meets The Empty Man in this modern Southern Gothic horror about a palm reader swept up in a disturbing missing-child case with a twist you won t see coming. After striking out on her own as a teen mom, Madi Price is forced to return to her hometown of Brandywine, Virginia, with her seventeen-year-old daughter.

With nothing to her name, she scrapes together a living as a palm reader at the local farmers market.

It s there that she connects with old high school flame Henry McCabe, now a reclusive local fisherman whose infant son, Skyler, went missing five years ago.

Everyone in town is sure Skyler is dead, but when Madi reads Henry s palm, she s haunted by strange and disturbing visions that suggest otherwise.

As she follows the thread of these visions, Madi discovers a terrifying nightmare waiting at the center of the labyrinth and it s coming for everyone she holds dear.

Combining supernatural horror with domestic suspense into a visceral exploration of parental grief, What Kind of Mother cements Clay McLeod Chapman's reputation as a star (Vulture) and the twenty-first century s Richard Matheson (Richard Chizmar, Chasing the Boogeyman.)
