In a suburb of NYC, a small town of Stepford has a secert. Everyone is TOO nice, TOO perfect, and TOO alike to be normal. When Joanna and her husband move into the neighborhood, they are dazzled with the charming, welcoming iddylic charm. That is, until Joanna unearths a sinister plot that will shake her world to the core. If you've seen the movie, starring Nicole Kidman, read the book to see how the two compare...you might be suprised! An overall good read!
