Their dreams of adoption could haunt their nightmares for eternity....

Claire Keller would do anything to have a child. Unable to conceive, she's overjoyed when she and her husband bond with the five-year-old girl they adopt. But Claire's hopes for a perfect family shatter when her daughter stands before her covered in blood and prophesying death....

As the child exhibits more strange supernatural abilities, the frightened Kellers find themselves caught up in a dark plot. Hunted by a shadowy organization hell-bent on claiming the girl, the family is forced on the run. But if they can't find shelter from the man obsessed with their daughter's power, their adoption may end up lethally terminated.

Can Claire escape a terrifying conspiracy and restore the happy family she's always dreamed of?

The Adoption is a stand-alone science-fiction thriller. If you like pulse-pounding action, futuristic tech, and unexpected twists and turns, then you'll love Greg Meritt's suspenseful tale.

Badly written, Badly Narrated

Do they even audition these narrator's This is one of the worst I've listened to. Probably not that bad of a book but writing is poor. The dialogue is very unnatural and preaching.

Performance is sub par

The variety of the performance takes away from the story line. I could not get past the first 45 minutes

Just awful!

The story is poorly written. The dialogue is stilted and the narration unnatural. Don’t waste your time or money.

Hated it

I expected something like a Dean Koontz novel, but storyline just veered off the rails.

Frankly, I found it terrible. Even in science fiction, there has to be a level of plausibility for the story to work. Things need to make sense and elements still need to fit together, even within the fantasy environment. You can’t just create a ridiculous premise and expect readers to get on board with fantastical storylines just because it’s sci-fi.

The characters had no depth, the interaction between the individuals was not natural, conversations were ludicrous at times (example: “I made an appointment with the doctor for 10 o’clock”, “in the morning?”, “no, at night, silly!”) and the developments of peoples’ concerns over matters was in hyper-drive.

I only made it to the end because I was not in the mood to read anything else.
