The prologue sounds terrible.
And this is just the beginning...
Tessa is married to Samuel (Sam).
After a miscarriage, she wanted to get pregnant again quickly.
She got paranoid as soon as her period came.
When she became pregnant after some time, she was delighted.
She was happy with the birth of her daughter.
On the other hand, her body was exhausted.

It is known that newborns give their parents a hard time in the first weeks of their lives.
We meet Samuel at the worst moment of his life.

His dead wife laying in bed.
His three-month-old daughter has disappeared.
What happened to them?
We learn that Sam suffers from a terrible disease called parasomnia.
This is a group of many different sleep disorders relating to abnormal or undesirable behaviour during sleep.
Parasomnias include night terrors, nightmares, sleepwalking, sleep talking or night paralysis.
Could it be that he killed his wife and took his own daughter away?
Will a hypnotherapist help with this?
Where has baby Cory gone?
You will also meet Linda.
She used to be Sam's girlfriend.
She is a manipulative and mentally ill woman.
She will not back down from anything.
She did everything to make Sam turn his back on his sister Claire.
Not only that, she did everything to cut him off from his friends.
They quarrelled very often.

I didn't like Linda.
She is a very toxic person.
