Summary: Everyone knows a couple like Jack and
Grace. He has looks and wealth; she has charm and elegance. He’s a dedicated
attorney who has never lost a case; she is a flawless homemaker, a masterful
gardener and cook, and dotes on her disabled younger sister. Though they are
still newlyweds, they seem to have it all. You might not want to like them, but
you do. You’re hopelessly charmed by the ease and comfort of their home, by the
graciousness of the dinner parties they throw. You’d like to get to know Grace
better.
But it’s difficult,
because you realize Jack and Grace are inseparable.
Some might call this
true love. Others might wonder why Grace never answers the phone. Or why she
can never meet for coffee, even though she doesn’t work. How she can cook such
elaborate meals but remain so slim. Or why she never seems to take anything
with her when she leaves the house, not even a pen. Or why there are such
high-security metal shutters on all the downstairs windows.
Some might wonder
what’s really going on once the dinner party is over, and the front door has
closed.
Angie’s comments: This is a dark book
about control. It is worth the read for the end, which is the best ending to a
book I have read in a long time.
Recommended for
readers of psychological thrillers.
