From Zero Laura Hyatt

Sophie Andrews?s life is rather routine. She fights with her twin sister, Alyssa, she still lives with her parents, and she isn?t sure where the relationship with her boyfriend is going. But everything changes one night when an intruder breaks into her home. Sophie wakes up and finds a masked man pinning her down, and she is raped. It?s only at the hospital that she realizes that while she survived the ordeal, her parents?as well as her rapist?did not.

Hospital staff members ask Sophie if she wants a pill to ensure that she won?t have a baby, but as a strong Christian she refuses because she believes that would be murder. She later finds out that she is indeed pregnant. Sophie struggles to recover from the rape and death of her parents. She accepts a job taking care of the sister-in-law of her boss. Meanwhile, she keeps receiving letters from a stalker expressing glee that she was left pregnant from the attack.

In From Zero, Sophie must now contend with small-town gossip, overcome the trauma of a rape, and solve the mystery of who could be her tormenter.
