Gerald and Jessie Burlingame have gone to their summer home on a warm weekday in October for a romantic interlude. After being handcuffed to her bedposts, Jessie tires of her husband's games, but when Gerald refuses to stop she lashes out at him with deadly consequences. Still handcuffed, she is trapped and alone. Painful memories from her childhood bedevil her. Her only company is a hungry stray dog and the sundry voices that populate her mind. As night comes, she is unsure whether it is her imagination or if she has another companion: someone watching her from the corner of her dark bedroom.

Review of "Gerald's Game" on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Not really my style, although I can't complain about the style of the writing. The whole inside the mind feel was actually very interesting and I enjoyed her multitude of inner voices, but the work isn't one I'd have chosen to read off my own bat.
