Adam Cosco crafts a deeply unsettling atmosphere in The Heart of a Child, centering on eleven-year-old Ava O'Brien's chilling claims about a horrific school day. As her parents grapple with disbelief, quiet suburban life fractures to reveal a terrifying, plausible evil lurking just beneath the surface. Rather than relying on cheap shocks, the novel builds a slow-burning dread centered on parental paranoia, trust, and the vulnerability of childhood. It leans into psychological unease before shifting toward the macabre, making it a compelling choice for readers who appreciate modern supernatural horror grounded in domestic tension and community secrets. Fans of subtle, atmospheric storytelling will find much to admire.
