The Editor decides who will live and who will die and who will live happily ever after... Sam Adams had the perfect life: a lovely wife, a devoted son, a job he loved, a comfortable home in a leafy suburb. But then a simple flat tire on Easter Sunday gave birth to a nightmare beyond all imagination. Now Sam must try to put his life back together. No longer able to rest easy in his suburban home, Sam rents a cottage on a secluded country estate. His new landlord is very mysterious, exquisitely beautiful, and blind. But far from being a helpless victim, Ms. Evelyn Richmond plays a strange game with Sam's already tangled mind, and with his tortured soul. What does the enigmatic Evelyn really want? Is she merely a bored and lonely woman? Or is she a dangerous sexual temptress? Sam, lost and broken, finds himself obsessed with and possessed by this sensuous and unsettling woman. He becomes snared in her carefully spun web of dark secrets and forbidden eroticism. Sam has no idea how far Evelyn Richmond will go, beyond what limits she will push him, or where their bizarre courtship will end. Nor will you... If you think you are beyond surprise, beyond shock... think again. The Editor is a fascinating psychological twister, a creepy and disturbing tale dissecting the depravity of the human soul. Thomas William Simpson explores a vast range of characters, plots, and emotions in his novels. The Editor, The Affair, The Caretaker, adrift, and The Immortal are all adventures into the dark side of human behavior.
