Dead Uncles and Damage Control
This is a downloadable e-book chapter
Once Destiny is stabilized at the medical hospital she is transferred to Wind Tree Hospital. When her mom visits her she leans in close and whispers to her all about The Bad Man's World and the beings inside it and how they make her do things she doesn't want to do but is paralyzed to stop them. Bonnie and Allen request a new family meeting, but Susan, who has read Joanne's notes also insists she is only pretending to hallucinate. Now Bonnie doesn't know what to think, but on the drive home from the hospital she gains some clarity about whether or not Destiny is telling the truth.
In the meantime Bonnie's abusive Uncle Trevor is stalking her. This is especially disturbing because he's been dead for six years. Bonnie is starting to worry that she is schizophrenic too. Is she schizophrenic, or is she just having flashbacks?
To answer these questions you will have to buy the chapter.
