Synopsis
Gerald's Game: Jessie Burlingame is left handcuffed to a bed in a remote Maine lake house after a private game with her husband goes wrong. With no immediate hope of rescue, she must overcome dehydration, injury, and the voices of doubt and memory competing in her mind. As darkness settles over the house, Jessie begins to question whether the figure she sees nearby is a hallucination or a real threat. The novel follows her attempt to survive while facing traumatic experiences she has long suppressed.
