The Story centers on the correspondence of two pedophiles: one, the narrator, is a middle-aged child-killer serving his twenty-third year in prison; the other, his bland-speaking, seemingly sweet admirer, is a nineteen-year-old woman intent on seducing a young neighborhood boy. Slowly, though these letters, the narrator's monstrous character emerges.

Review:
A novel that shines a flashlight under the bed of suburban perversity. A. M. Homes, whom the N.Y. Times Book Review calls "exhilaratingly perverse," lures us into a Nabokovian world where characters both repellent and seductive conduct forays into the dark limits of their obsessions.
