 Madeline's
Miracles
A Novel
by Warren Adler
A cautionary tale about a powerful psychic who takes control of
a family.
When a commercial artist, her
stockbroker husband and their twin daughters move to Los Angeles, they
unwittingly fall prey to a woman who convinces them that she is a psychic and
can foresee their future. By persuading them that she holds the key to their
success and can protect them from the dangers that threaten them, she gradually
takes full control over their careers, their parenting, even their sex lives,
until they become her willing accomplices. This chilling tale rises to a tense
crescendo as the psychic dissects and manipulates the family's beliefs and
paralyzes their will to protect themselves. This classic story of brainwashing
offers a cautionary tale for anyone who has lost the ability to question an
illogical certainty. Read the first
