Publisher's Summary

The Woman is the powerful story of the last survivor of a feral tribe of cannibals who have been terrorizing the East Coast - from Maine into Canada - for years now. Badly wounded in a battle with police, a woman takes refuge in a cave overlooking the sea. Christopher Cleek is a slick, amoral - and unstable - country lawyer who, out hunting one day, sees her bathing in a stream. Fascinated, he follows her to her cave.

Cleek has many dark secrets and to these he'll add another. He will capture her, lock in his fruit cellar, in order to tame her, civilize her. To this end, he'll enlist his long-suffering wife Belle, his teenage son, Brian, and daughter, Peg, and even his little girl, Darlin', to aid him. So the question soon becomes: who is more savage? The hunter or the game?

Whoa..

This was an unexpected binge listen for me. Not an easy listen, but utterly compelling to finish. There are extremely mature themes here, and many times I found myself with jaw dropped. The narration is excellent, although a bit robotic at first. I had no trouble discerning who was speaking or keeping up with the flow of the story though. And what a story! It's not "good" or something you love, but it's felt, down deep. Raw and crazy real.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
