| Publisher Description: At home, Rachel Rhodes is a mother and wife. At work, she is a manager. At night, she is the infamous serial killer known only as Jill. Her secret will eventually affect everyone in her life, from her family members to the detectives investigating the case. Luck starts off on her side as she befriends heartbroken detective Cole Dale, who's an important link to the investigation. However, that luck seems to fade when Rachel meets Cole's partner, an unorthodox and mentally unstable detective, Perry Charleton, driven by personal reasons to stop Jill using any means necessary. The novel is told in an omniscient narrative style, allowing the story to have a hauntingly neutral perspective which disguises everything as it progresses and leaves no room for predictability, entangling the reader in a web of evil. Layered with symbolism and motifs, leaving the story to come together like a puzzle through the characters' actions and interactions; its themes deal with such issues as dysfunction, impressionability and influence, sexism, racism and even humiliation. As with any C. W. Schultz novel, "JILL" is a study in candor. The author himself calls "JILL" "a serial killer soap opera" as Rachel seeks the romantic, fairy tale ending that only a deranged woman would believe possible after the things she has done. |
