Perfect Son

Jennie Gwen

The Perfect Son When John Swanson, a prestigious criminal investigator, learns of a murder in his childhood home he cannot resist getting involved, but sometimes things are better left alone. Now he is compelled to find the identity of the young child who had been beaten, drowned and buried in the very yard where he had played so many years ago. John tries to convince himself that he is not connected to this case but can feel the mysterious link between this murder and his family. Plagued for years by recurring dreams of drowning, John now questions the drowning death of the child. Had he somehow been involved- or worse, was he responsible? As his dreams become nightmares the story unfolds with plots and subplots that will keep you engrossed until you too must find the identity of this child. Did John accidentally or intentionally kill this child? Did his parents cover up the crime? This doesn't seem possible as John has no recollection of any other children in the neighborhood. But now even his faith in the details of his own past is shattered by the secrets that his father reveals and the ultimate truth that lies within his dream.
