Eleven Frames: A Nine Seconds Novel
The night door opened twenty-one times. One of them was her sister.
Wren Aldridge thought it was over. The man who hid her mother on a mountain for twenty-eight years is in federal prison, and Elle Aldridge is finally home. Then Wren learns something nobody in Kestrel County ever said out loud: she was born a twin.
Her sister, Jenna Hale, was carried out the back door of the Kestrel County Children's Home a few hours after she was born and handed to a family in South Carolina for thirty thousand dollars. Their birth mother, Margo Ballard-Vess, was told she had dreamed the second cry.
Jenna wasn't the only one. Between 1979 and 1989, a night door on the east stairwell opened twenty-one times, and a soft-spoken man with a truck full of hunting dogs drove the babies away. Somebody has already killed to keep that secret, once in 1996 and again in 2011. Now the old building is set to be torn down, the last of the evidence is about to go with it, and Elle Aldridge has disappeared.
Wren has until the excavator starts.
Eleven Frames is a Southern suspense novel about stolen children, two sisters who find each other, and a family that finally gets to say the truth out loud. It stands on its own, and it completes the story that began in Nine Seconds.
