Pamela 's Reviews > The Edge of Normal

I love a good thriller, especially one that's dark and disturbing, and lucky me as that's what I got when I picked up "The Edge of Normal." I can't even remember how I came across the novel but no matter as I'm so glad I did. Carla Norton ("Norton") weaves a dark and chilling tale about kidnapped children who are held for months and/or years; tortured, starved, and sexually abused at the hands of pure evil - evil that lurks behind the façade of those who walk among us. "The Edge of Normal," a brilliant and well-written suspenseful-thriller that is sure to intrigue fans of such genre as it's truly a dark, intense and thought-provoking novel, with characters that come across as realistic as can be. Such an intriguing and riveting tale full of twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end, reading each and every word well into the late hours, leaving me with feelings of such satisfaction and pleasure when I reached the end, by the same token feelings such disappointment as the story had come to an end. Norton's debut fiction novel is a true thriller that should not be missed. I anxiously look forward to her next work of fiction.
