Let's go play at the Adams'

by Mendal W. Johnson

A disturbing tale of childhood cruelty. Barbara is babysitting a family of children while their parents are away for a week. However, the children instead turn the tables and take her captive. With no one to help, Barbara is alone with the children, whose psyches are corrupted by the newfound power over the helpless adult in their hands.
