Book Description After divorcing her abusive husband, Cheryl Blazsko takes her daughter, Sandi, on a retreat to an isolated cabin in the mountains of northern California. A misunderstanding with a traveling couple — who claim the cabin Cheryl has rented was promised to them — leads to kidnapping, torture, and above all, absolute confusion. Why have Cheryl and Sandi become victims? Perhaps this is just a test. Will they pass it by standing up to their captors, or will they fail by allowing victimization to lead to their own demise? Jonathan Elston has crafted a tale that combines magical realism with odd, slapstick comedy and — most importantly — trenchant satire of modern domesticity. Populated with colorful characters and wild symbolic imagery, Tripwire will leave readers puzzling over its true meaning for years to come. |
