The Frog of Terror

About this book

Rain cannot wash the blood away, and gentle music only sharpens the horror: a young woman dances beside the bodies of a man and an elderly woman as though performing for an unseen audience. Mona Khalaf enters the minds of victim and killer, where mud, memory, terror, and exhilaration blur the border between awareness and madness. What begins as an apparently familiar crime grows into a psychological investigation of the nineteen-year-old at its center. The novel asks what story produced this scene and who can survive its hidden logic.
