The woman a novel

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 her 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?

Geschwächt und verwundet gerät sie in die Gewalt des tyrannischen Familienvaters Cleek. Der Sadist Cleek versucht, die wilde Frau zu "zähmen", wobei er seine Familie als Komplizen missbraucht. Doch er hat den Überlebenswillen seiner Gefangenen unterschätzt. Bevor sein Experiment zu Ende ist, werden alle Unaussprechliches durchleiden müssen. Jack Ketchum ist das Pseudonym des ehemaligen Schauspielers, Lehrers, Literaturagenten und Holzverkäufers Dallas Mayr. Seine Horrorromane zählen in den USA unter Kennern neben den Werken von Stephen King oder Clive Barker zu den absoluten Meisterwerken des Genres, wofür Jack Ketchum mehrere namhafte Auszeichnungen verliehen wurden."
