The Boy with Penny Eyes
1987 · Tor
Eleven-year-old Billy Potter never smiles, laughs, or cries, and wherever he wanders across America, accidents, unexplained deaths, and sudden violence follow. In New York, Unitarian minister Jacob Beck is suffering a crippling crisis of faith when he crosses paths with the boy. Beck uncovers a startling truth: Billy is not an agent of pure evil but a soul fractured at birth, separated from his spiritual counterpart, and the void in his wake terrifies everyone he touches.
