Red Rain

Description

A chilling and bloody tale for older readers from the master of horror, R. L. Stine. When Lea Sutter visits the Caribbean island of Chat Noir and witnesses a devastating earthquake, she is moved to adopt two beautiful, blue-eyed orphan twins, Daniel and Samuel, and take them home to America. But Lea's own children sense something strange and wrong about the boys and their innocent, oddly old-fashioned ways - and soon after they arrive, a terrible accident takes place on their doorstep. As more grisly and suspicious events take place, the boys' true origins - and their evil intentions - become terrifyingly clear.

R. L. Stine, author of the multimillion-selling Goosebumps and Point Horror series, lives in New York City with his wife, Jane, an editor and publisher, and their dog, Minnie.
