Story
They call me a slut. Maybe I am. Sometimes I do things I despise. Sometimes men take without asking. But I have a musical gift, only a year left of high school, and a plan. With one obstacle. Emeric Marceaux doesn’t just take. He seizes my will power and bangs it like a dark note. When he commands me to play, I want to give him everything. I kneel for his punishments, tremble for his touch, and risk it all for our stolen moments.

Story
Nancy Friday's taboo-shattering best seller My Secret Garden is the most popular and controversial book of women's sexual fantasies ever published. Women who feared their erotic fantasies called it scandalous. Women who recognized their own fantasies in its pages, rejoiced. Outspoken, graphic, vulnerable and shameless, My Secret Garden is a classic study of female sexuality. Friday interviewed hundreds of women from every part of the country to learn their sexual private thoughts, and she listened like no one else.

Too short to be impactful but definitely "giallo"
I hate to be the outlier here (this story has only 5-star ratings on Gooreads), but I always have to be honest in my reviews. Stranger in the Shadows has all of the components that make a giallo "giallo". You have a masked killer, brutal kill scenes, sex scenes, a whodunit, psychopaths, and enough visual details to evoke a modern gothic atmosphere.
The pitfalls of Stranger in the Shadows are the pitfalls of most giallo films, if I am being honest. One, you don't get to spend enough time with any characters to feel what is at stake- it is my same issue with many slashers. Two, the big reveal is often so abrupt that it is unsatisfying. There were not enough cookie crumbs being sprinkled throughout the story to make the big twist impactful.
This story would have been better if we just stayed with Luna and Carlo instead of devoting chapters to people who are just numbers. Nevertheless, I am giving this story 3 stars instead of 2 because it is an "on the nose" interpretation of a giallo, for better and worse.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
