Publisher Description: Franny is close to her parents, adores her horse and is head over heels in love with her girlfriend, Leah. But Franny s parents are abortion providers at the local hospital, and an anonymous stranger is prepared to do whatever it takes to stop them. A stranger who phones at all hours. Who knows where they live. Who knows Franny s name. When Leah s older brother, Jake, refers to her parents as baby killers, Franny starts to wonder if perhaps the threats aren t coming from a stranger at all. If she tells the police about her suspicions, she could lose her girlfriend. But if she doesn t--and if she s right--she could lose her parents." |
