Secrets Of The Hanged Man (Icarus Fell #3) (An Icarus Fell Novel) - Plot & Excerpts
She didn’t see him peeking around the door frame, but she’d hardly noticed him since they came home from the hospital three weeks ago. “She’s not my sister,” he’d said when his stepfather brought him to see her sleeping in the cradle the first night they arrived home. “You’re not my father, so she’s not my sister.” Since then, the baby kept his mother occupied and his stepfather remained resentful, giving him food because he had to, barely speaking to him when he dropped him off at school in the mornings and making him walk home from grade one each day. He’d tried to tell his mother, but she was always too tired, or too busy with Kaitlin, or too cranky to pay attention. “What are you doing?” He hadn’t noticed his stepfather, who insisted he call him Uncle Robert but whom Cory thought of as Ugly Robert, come up behind him. Cory jumped like a ghost said boo. “Nothing.”
