For Love of Audrey Rose


For Love of Audrey Rose is a 1982 sequel to the novel Audrey Rose and its film version. Both books were written by Frank De Felitta.

Background

As with Audrey Rose, De Fellita claimed For Love of Audrey Rose was inspired by his son's sudden piano playing talent and the subsequent visit from an occultist.

Plot summary
