{"product_id":"9781999173999","title":"Girl on a swing","description":"Fans of psychological thrillers and gothic-noir, look no further than Girl on a Swing, by D. B. Wright, an intense and horrifying account of a young girls victimization at the hands of her family. What would you do if you found yourself at the mercy of abusive parents in a remote country home, trying to protect yourself and your baby brother from their violence and depravity? Girl on a swing explores the grim reality of such abuse, and the story of a young girl desperately trying to survive. An unnerving climb inside the perpetuated horror of familial abuse. From the deep graft of a survivor, this unsettling novella explores what happens to generations caught within a cycle of violence. How love and hate work side-by-side in unhealthy relationships and what sadism can do to a child. With a vivid setting of shocking reality juxtaposed with phantasmagoric escapism through the eyes of a child, Girl on a Swing is a psychological thriller with the fast pulse of a fleeing rabbit, and the intelligence of a pursuing hawk. Disturbing, essential and eye-opening, this gothicesque horror will get under your skin and stay there. Think of all that sinister fiction you devoured and loved? Girl on a Swing packs the same intense punch. A blend of violence and abuse, a strong protagonist who we root for throughout, with a creepy gothic atmosphere. It's not hard to see why this novella will keep you burning the midnight oil.","brand":"Blackbird Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48592868245745,"sku":"9781999173999","price":9.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/9781999173999_p0.jpg?v=1787116534","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781999173999","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
