His novels have sold over 200 million copies worldwide and more than thirty have appeared on national and international bestseller lists. He lives in southern California with his wife, Gerda and a vivid imagination.

Twenty-five years later, she has a new life and two normal children. But her past still haunts her—and now the carnival is coming back to town...
