Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 295 pages. Octavo (8 3/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's quarter green cloth with gilt lettering to spine over brown boards in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Kathryn and David are the ideal couple: she, petite and pretty; he, dark, debonair… and gifted. But beneath the smooth surface, unseen by their envious or admiring friends, splinters are beginning to form. David suspects one of their two children is not his own, for plump and naughty Jeanetta does not conform with the controlled perfection with which he surrounds himself. Kathryn struggles to iron out family confrontations and maintain the calm of their lives together - but slowly things start to slip from her control. Bits of jewellery and items of clothing mysteriously go missing. David's mood swings become more irrational and violent. His drive to dominate and order the world he's created intensifies to the point of locking the playroom door and pocketing the key - a move that signals the final route into the chaos that will disrupt their perfect world. Condition: A fine copy in like jacket.

Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. 1st edition, September 1991, with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. "In this harrowing psychological thriller, beautiful Katherine Allendale thinks she has everything: a doting, su…ccessful husband, two children, a magnificent home in the English countryside. Although her architect husband, David, manages their existence according to his own personal blueprint for perfection (including telling her how to dress and whom to befriend) Katherine has no complaints, and leaves unspoken what few qualms she does feel. Product of an impoverished childhood and a series of foster homes, Katherine clings blindly to the good life David has made for her, ever fearful that he who giveth might also lose his temper and taketh away. One day, four-year-old Jeanetta--a plump, spirited child who by no means meets her father's impossible standards--misbehaves, and David locks her in the playroom. For a month! The horror of that act and Katherine's subsequent acquiescence in her daughter's imprisonment keep the reader enthralled and redeem the narrative." -- PW. Book.
