What if your father wasn't who he said he was?  What if you carried secrets within your blood?

Andrew Pyper, (the internationally bestselling author of The Demonologist, The Homecoming, and The Killing Circle) radically reimagines the origins of gothic literature’s founding science fiction masterpieces (Frankenstein, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Dracula) with The Only Child, a psychological thriller that fuses relentless suspense with surprising emotion in a tale about family, identity, and monstrosity.

“Pyper’s writing is gripping, and readers will undoubtedly make comparisons to Stephen King.” -- Library Journal
