This is the story of Rose Daniels. Rosie flees her nightmare marriage to find refuge in a strange city. Far from her brutal husband, Norman, whose relentless savagery and mad obsessions follow to her sanctuary, and drive Rosie to transform to survive. Escaping from the macabre marriage is not as easy as fleeing to a new city, picking a new name, finding a new job, and lucking out with a new man. Not with a husband like Norman. After 14 years of being beaten, Rose wakes up one morning and leaves her husband. But, she keeps looking over her shoulder, because Norman has the instincts of a predator. And what is the strange piece of art that has Rose in a kind of spell? In this brilliant dark-hued tale of gender wars, SK fashions yet another thriller holding his readers out on the edge. 420 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
