A turbulent, tragic story of domestic abuse from the
bestselling author of The Pilot's Wife.
Everyone
believes that Maureen and Harrold English, two successful
New York City journalists, have a happy, stable marriage.
It's the early '70s and no one discusses or even suspects
domestic abuse. But after Maureen suffers another brutal
beating, she flees with her infant daughter to a coastal
town in Maine. The weeks pass slowly, and just as Maureen
settles into her new life and new identity, Harrold
reappears, bringing the story to a violent, unforgettable
climax. A labyrinth of a tale with an ingenious structure,
Strange Fits of Passion is also a powerful portrait of truth
and deception.
