Too Easy
Author(s): Bruce Deitrick Price
“A witty and entertaining look at our dark sides.” —Kirkus Reviews
Robert Saunders is a newspaper editor with a Volvo, a place in the suburbs, and a marriage that’s getting dull.
Kathy Becker, who works at the same newspaper, has no doubt that Robert deserves a better wife. Her. Kathy is smart, focused, and pretty. Robert hardly knows what hits him, especially when Kathy starts seducing him in secluded corners of their building.
Soon Robert knows he’s in love. He’s ready for a hot new marriage. But Anne Saunders isn’t going to give up her husband that easily. And though she’s not usually the kind to take desperate measures, she decides to defend what is hers.
Suspenseful and harrowing, sometimes funny and often sexy, Too Easy is the “unwed mother of all page-turners…. So well written it’s frightening” (Kinky Friedman, author of Elvis, Jesus & Coca-Cola). It’s a stylish psychological thriller about the bad decisions we make in life and love.
Review(s):
“Price writes extremely well....The book's pace is breezy and mile-a-minute, kind of like New York City where the tale is played out…. You will smile at the author’s wonderful phrases.”
“Erotic intrigue…. Too Easy employs a kind of continuous stream of consciousness in a voice that's snappy and macho.”
“A steamy exploration of Manhattan mores…. The book moves rapidly, almost breathlessly, with clever touches.”
“As the answers unfold and the narrative plunges on to its surprising ending, Price catches the reader in a spellbinding account of the inner thoughts of his characters, as the simple mushrooms into the complex and right and wrong fuse.”
“Recommended.”
“Certainly, this is a man who has female friends: his girl talk is top class…. The film contract is probably already on his agent’s desk. Too Easy the movie could have been made in gritty and glamorous 1940s black-and-white, with Ann Baxter as Anne, Kirk Douglas as Robert and Joan Crawford as Kathy….The point of the story is how easy – too easy – it is to slip from wanting something badly to doing bad things in order to get it.”
