When Katrina Connors' mother walks out on her family, Kat is surprised but not shocked; the whole year she has been "becoming 16" --- falling in love with the boy next door, shedding her babyfat, discovering sex --- her mother has been slowly withdrawing. But when she is haunted by all-too-real dreams in which her mother is crying for help, Kat must act on her instinct that something violent and evil has occurred --- a realization that will lead her to a chilling discovery.
