Summary

In this novel of mounting suspense from award-winning author Herbert Lieberman, a terrifying surprise waits beneath a couple’s New England home. Albert and Alice Graves live a normal, if monotonous, domestic life. They never had children; they spend their days tending to their home and enjoying their time together.

One day, when the oil man, Richard, is refilling their furnace, Alice invites him to dinner, never suspecting that a casual act of charity will lead to a horrifying, morbid discovery in the crawlspace underneath their beloved house.

The Graves take Richard into their lives, becoming attached to his presence as though to the son they never had. Their town, though, is not nearly so welcoming. When the locals lash out against the Graves and their strange houseguest, the contented household is irrevocably drawn into a darkness they could not have imagined.

Crazy story

Not what I was expecting from the title I was expecting a killer or someone being kidnapped and having to escape through a crawlspace.
Not what you get at all it kept me gripped till the end.
100% worth a listen for something different.

Brooding

Not a horror but quite a dark tale. I was absolutely gripped by this book, which kept me guessing all the way through.
Questionable decisions and character motivation left me with a constant sense of foreboding and dread.
I am definitely checking out more by this author as I feel it was very well written. In some ways the story reminds me of a Stephen King title, especially when it comes to descriptions of details and the building of suspense.
