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’ve 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.

I didn‘t enjoy reading this story. I suppose that times have changed since it was written and the whole stranger danger campaign has made us more conservative in welcoming people into our homes. I just couldn‘t empathize with the main characters at all and was silently shouting at them to get him out of their house throughout the book. I was expecting more of a creepy tale, it didn‘t live up to that at all.

This novel from 1977 is never mentioned anywhere. An incredibly creepy book, my friends and I all shared this book around in high school. It's kind of similar to a low-budget The Collector. Which was fun. And under-rated. #AllHallowsRead

SGJ Whoah, cool. I'd never heard of this one. And? I have a novella out in the world with that title. 8y

[DELETED] 3323341091 there is a creepy 1980's movie by the same title (no connection to the book) with Klaus Kinski, that is great. 8y

MCYmermaid Is this the one where there are creepy monsters with penis tongues? 8y

CherylDeFranceschi @MCYmermaid No. I do not know that one but that sounds very freaky. 8y

MCYmermaid Very! 8y
