Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
This autobiographical novel is a psychological thriller which chronicles the author's disastrous relationship with a woman, Keri, who unbeknownst to him has a long criminal history. They meet though an on-line dating site in the wake of his wife's death from ovarian cancer. Keri was adopted as a baby by a military family who had another child "naturally" only about a year after she was brought home. From an early age, Keri exhibits sociopathic behaviors. She is sexually promiscuous even before reaching puberty. She discovers she can trade sex for money from the age of fifteen. Consistent with her sociopathic personality, she becomes quite sadistic towards her brother whom her parents can't help but show a preference for. Keri meets Colin on St. Patrick's Day in an Irish pub in Georgetown. In short order, they're living together and soon get married. His work takes him away from home to overseas military installations frequently. At home alone, Keri becomes bored and begins to frequent singles bars to pick up guys. One man she meets not only shares sex with her, but also prescription pain medicine. Keri loves the high and becomes addicted. To support her habit, Keri begins to steal money and merchandise from a women's clothing boutique where she has become the manager in the Georgetown neighborhood close to where she and Colin live. Keri's theft and embezzlement are discovered and she spends time in prison on a felony conviction. When she is released from prison, Colin is mortified that his wife isn't welcome in the presence of their friends and insists that they have to move somewhere far away in order to start over with new friends and a new situation. Reluctantly, Keri agrees to relocate to New Mexico.Even before arriving in New Mexico, Keri becomes pregnant with their first child and within two years of settling in Los Gatos, she is pregnant with the couple's second child. After their second child begins grade school, Keri begins to get bored during the day again. She discovers that most of her neighboring moms are bored, as well, and use some form of escape to relieve it. A few are alcoholics. A few are addicted to gambling. One can't leave the couch in front of the television. And, bingo! One likes prescription pain medicines. Keri's abuse of prescription drugs becomes so out of control that it rapidly has disastrous financial implications. She and Colin have to declare bankruptcy. Their house is repossessed. Colin divorces her, gets sole custody of the children, and moves back East. Keri eventually finds a job as the office manager of a local church. Short counting the Sunday collections baskets to pocket some cash becomes more than she can resist. She soon finds that her crimes are discovered and she is convicted yet again of felonious behavior and sentenced to the State prison. Bill's story begins when he is in his mid-thirties. He has just divorced the mother of his daughter and is grudgingly persuaded to take a share in the Hamptons as a means to meet a potential spouse. He has been single for four or five years and as he approaches forty, he is despairing that he will meet anyone. Then, serendipitously, he meets Tracy at a dance club one night and so begins their journey. After several years of a storybook romance and marriage, Tracy is diagnosed with ovarian cancer. While she battles it valiantly, she eventually succumbs to the disease. After their first date, Bill is smitten with her. Keri plays hard-to-get, but eventually, she confesses that she needs a job. He gives her a job and despite knowing he should be cautious about dating an employee, Bill falls in love with Keri and eventually marries her. Once married, Keri's antisocial behavior toward Bill escalates dramatically. Bill files for divorce and only then discovers evidence that Keri has been embezzling hundreds of thousands of dollars from him and his stores. Bill's story could happen to anyone.
