by Vin Packer (Author)
Joseph Meaker was a shy, dedicated scholar. To his brash wife, Maggie, and her advertising friends, he was a cipher, easily dismissed. But behind his gentle façade he carried the seeds of violence, subtle and understated. Until the day his pet cat was accidentally killed by a neighbor's car.
Joseph's desire for revenge became an obsession that could only be satisfied by a ''punishment'' so gruesome it makes the skin crawl.
