| Summary |
"Everyone knows Madeleine and Jack Hunter. Maddy is an award-winning TV anchorwoman. Jack is the head of her network. To the world, theirs is a storybook marriage. But behind the doors of their lush Georgetown home a different story emerges. Maddy has always tried to deny Jack's subtle put-downs, control, and jealousy. She has no bruises, only the daggers of fear, humiliation, and isolation -- as powerful as the gun or the fist, the wounds as deep. It seems impossible that a woman the nation idolizes lives in degradation and fear. Maddy's secrets are well kept, even from herself." -- record for a English edition. |

"Семеиныи союз знаменитои телеведущеи Мэдди и медиа-магната Джека Хантера вызывает восхищение и зависть. Миллионы мужчин и женщин мечтают оказаться на их месте. Но никто не подозревает, какие постыдные таины хранятся за закрытыми дверьми их дома. Счастье, любовь и радость - всего лишь маска, за которои скрываются боль, отчаяние и страх... Каждыи день Мэдди сталкивается с необходимостью трудного выбора в жизни, пока однажды не находит силы, чтобы сказать тирании мужа 'нет'. Но так ли просто забыть прошлую жизнь, когда весь мир напоминает о неи?" -- publisher's or seller's website. |

"To the outside world, Washington, D.C., television coanchor Maddy Hunter appears to have an enviable life. Married to her boss, former football star-cum-media mogul Jack Hunter, she's got brains, beauty, a prestigious job, a glamorous marriage and all the trappings of success. Yet Maddy - whose current husband saved her from a physically abusive former spouse - is trapped in another relationship that's as devastating and destructive as her first. Jack doesn't hit Maddy, but he subjects her to mind games, put-downs and constant undermining; it's obvious psychological abuse to observers, though not to Maddy." -- alternative summary from a record for an English edition. |
