Today we’re pleased to announce our special hardcover edition of the controversial novel The Woman by Jack Ketchum and Lucky McKee is almost finished at the printer and will be shipping this month!
Jack Ketchum collectibles always sell very well, but we expect there to be extra interest in this project because the movie of the same name is based on it. You probably heard about all of the fuss at Sundance last year. People went nuts for the movie in more ways than one.
Previously, The Woman was only available as an ultra-expensive deluxe edition with a tiny print run, and our edition includes a BONUS NOVELLA that wasn’t included in that edition!
About the Book:
The Woman is the powerful story of the last survivor of a feral tribe of cannibals who have terrorized the east coast from Maine into Canada for years now. Badly wounded in a battle with police, she takes refuge in a cave overlooking the sea.
Christopher Cleek is a slick, amoral — and unstable — country lawyer who, out hunting one day, sees her bathing in a stream. Fascinated, he follows her to her cave.
Cleek has many dark secrets and to these he’ll add another. He will capture her, lock in his fruit cellar, and tame her, civilize her. To this end he’ll enlist his long-suffering wife Belle, his teenage son and daughter Brian and Peg, and even his little girl Darlin’, to aid him.
So the question becomes, who is more savage? The hunter or the game?
About the Bonus Novella:
This new novella Jack Ketchum and Lucky McKee takes place a year after the novel ends, but to say anything else could spoil some of the surprises!
