Daughter of Darkness
“CHAPTER TEN The first person the Staffords called was their family physician, Doctor Grainger. He advised them to give Jenny one of the sleeping pills he'd prescribed long ago, and told them to let her sleep as long as possible. He'd see her tomorrow afternoon. Then he told them how happy he was that she'd come home.

"Well, we called Dr. Grainger." "Yes, but he's an MD. Priscilla is her psychiatrist. There's a difference." He took her in his arms. Held her. "God, I still can't quite believe she's home." "Neither can I." She looked up into her husband's face and gave him a long kiss. Then, "Please, can't I call her? She's been worried sick." He grinned. "You just want to share the good news." She laughed. "That's right." "Well, then call her. I'm going up to bed. I think I'm actually going to be able to sleep now." Unspoken was the fact that they had no id...ea where their daughter had been the past eight days.MoreLess
