NIGHT WALK by David Hudnut

Is it the fact that their four-year-old daughter Eva has developed telepathic abilities and she’s messing with everyone’s heads?

Rob and Amelia Wistfell take Eva to Venice Beach so they can relax and enjoy their Saturday. Throughout the day a variety of random encounters with irritable and confrontational strangers ruins their good mood. Rob and Amelia have no idea why. Eva is too young to understand what is going on herself. The family returns home with their tails between their legs.

 They hope to put their disastrous day behind them by taking a relaxing evening stroll through their neighborhood. During their walk, a final confrontation escalates into outright violence. Will the Wistfell family fall prey to their assailants? Or will their assailants get more than they bargained for? What role will Eva’s strange powers play? Where do her powers come from anyway?
