DESCRIPTION:
Susan Johnson said Not For Me. There will be those who love this book but I am not one of them. It is a well written psychological novel about the "perfect" couple, Jack and Grace. Jack is a lawyer who represents battered women. Grace stays home and paints in their perfect home and throws complex perfect dinner parties. They are the guardians of Grace's sister, Millie, who has Downs Syndrome. Almost done with her school, Mill. "More horror than suspense" according to Manna. This book wasn't for me. I love suspense, but I couldn't get through the book. One of the main characters is beyond cruel and sinister to his wife. When he killed his dogI was out.. "since when does psychological thriller have to equal "disturbing"?'!?" Returned for refund" according to JUSTEE. What a stretch to say this book is the equivalent of The Girl on the Train. Only a thriller in the same macabre, gothic way that American Horror Story is scary. Just disturbing. Themes of the most vulnerable groups as targets of cruelty - disabled sister with Down's Syndrome, and a puppy???? I am angry this book didn't come with a warning!!!! Thank goodness for Amazon's return policy!
