Rosemary's Baby meets Women's Lib... What would you do if everyone treated your body like it didn't belong to you? How far would you go to keep yourself safe when everyone seems out to do you harm? 

I enjoy Megan Abbott's ability to draw on fear from symbolism, partnered with the threat of human nature and the paranormal. I love her writing!
