SHHHH. THE BABY IS ASLEEP...
Right from the beginning, Joni Lawrence and her baby had a strange and wonderful connection her husband could not understand and could not share. Somehow she could speak to six-month old Stephen without words...without sounds.
But Joni couldn't shake the feeling of dread, of waiting, and then suddenly one night, inexplicably, a mother's worst fear came alive in the lifeless body of her child.
The doctor's explanations gave no comfort. At night, Stephen's cries haunt her pleading for help. The doctors call it imagination, hysteria. But Joni knows it's something else, something more.
And then the shocking glimpse of her baby's crying face in the back seat of another woman's car...
Stephen is alive. Stephen is in need. Stephen is calling. And a mother must answer...
