Overview
The classic novel of suspense is āa headlong story of nerve-wracking tension, psychological validity and emotional driveā (Oakland Tribune).
Ā
Blanche Lake is not like the other mothers who come to collect their children at the local nursery school on New Yorkās Upper East Side. She lives alone, has a job, and has never been married. Itās the first day of school when this story begins, and Blanche is eager to see how her daughter, Bunny, has fared away from home. But her expectant waiting becomes a motherās most dreaded nightmare: Bunny never materializes. Neither teachers nor students recall the small girl, and soon Blanche is engaged in a frantic search for any trace of her missing daughter. And the worst part isĀ .Ā .Ā . no one believes her. In this fraught and at times freakish tale of suspense, Evelyn Piper takes us deep into the psyche of the 1950s to explore American fetishes, fallacies, and fears around motherhood and sexuality. Blanche emerges as a new kind of heroineāa hard-boiled mom with gun in hand, willing to take any risk to find her missing daughter.
