At fourteen, you shouldn't have to wish that just once when your mother threatened to kill herself, she actually meant it... But Lindy has already lived a lifetime of cruelty and neglect-a lifetime of trying to make herself so small she would be invisible to her mother's whims. Her childhood is long lost to a warped combination of rage and apathy... Here she remains, unsure of who she is and scared of what she could become. Men are supposed to be strong. The aggressors. Abuse is a man's game... But seventeen years have told Chris Marshall different. It knows no gender. Evil is equal opportunity. Not that anyone would believe him. His entire married life has been rife with Victoria's infidelities and destruction-years lost to anger, fear, and ultimately resignation... Here he remains, trapped by her sociopathic machinations, where every action has a reaction, and innocence hangs in the balance.Nestled in idyllic suburbia, Apathetic is the haunting story of a family terrorized and manipulated by the wife and mother who is supposed to love, honor, nurture, and care for them. In the Marshall house, viciousness reigns, and whatever happens... never tell a soul.
