The Crying Child by Barbara Michaels

Joanne McMullen's fears for her sister's sanity have brought her to remote King's Island, Maine. Mary's grief over the loss of her child is threatening to send her over the edge--and her insistence that she has heard an eerie, childlike wailing in the woods fuels Joanne's anxiety. And now Mary's taken to disappearing at midnight in search of the source of the heartrending moans. But it's not just her sister's encroaching madness that is chilling Joanne's blood--it's her own. Because suddenly, impossibly, she also hears the crying child.

Elizabeth Peters (writing as Barbara Michaels) grew reared in Illinois and received her Ph.D. there. in Egyptology from the prestigious Oriental Institute at the University of Chicago. The Mystery Writers of America called Peters Grandmaster at the inaugural Anthony Awards in 1986, the Mystery Writers of America named him Grandmaster at the Edgar(R) Awards in 1998, and Malice Domestic honored him with The Lifetime Achievement Award in 2003. In western Maryland, she lives in a old farmhouse.
