Jennifer Haigh
Whatever had been going on inside the shuttered old house, the couple who lived there kept it to themselves. Among the locals, there's only chilling speculation.
Neighbors are shocked when Harold Pardee reports his wife dead. No one even knew the eccentric TV repairman was married. Within hours, horrible rumors spread about what that poor woman must have endured for 30 years. Until the Pardees' carefully guarded world is exposed. New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Haigh delivers an endearing short story about our misguided perception of strangers, the nature of love, and the need for secrets.
Jennifer Haigh's Zenith Man is part of Inheritance, a collection of five stories about secrets, unspoken desires, and dangerous revelations between loved ones. Each piece can be read or listened to in a single setting. By yourself, behind closed doors, or shared with someone you trust.

Jennifer Haigh is unquestionably a talented crafter of tales. This was my first experience with her writings, but from what I could ascertain, she possesses all of the traits essential to becoming an "A-List Writer." The believability of the characters, their distinctive differences, the dialogue, the main plot, subplots, etc., were, to a great extent, all wonderfully done. However, I found myself wanting...no, NEEDING more at practically every turn.
As an aspiring author myself, I tend to be "too generous," at times, when rating the efforts of others. I know the great passion and (sometimes greater) pains which are lovingly poured into each sentence, paragraph, and edit. I suppose what I'm trying to come to terms with is the frustratingly stubborn fact that EVERYTHING about this short pointed towards one very clear fact. The presented work, as a whole, was too potentially great to NOT be a COMPLETE, three hundred page plus NOVEL!
So, it was with a reluctantly heavy heart that I rated this story lower than I felt the characters,or the narrating, deserved. If, by chance, Jennifer happens to stumble upon this review, I offer this bit of unsolicited advice...
DO NOT SELL YOURSELF SHORT (no pun intended)!! Your abilities amazed me!! Even after "reading" this short story, and leaving a so-so review, I would, without hesitation, purchase a novel crafted by your hands ON NAME ALONE!
Endnote: Amazon, consider giving the authors of similar original shorts the extra time and resources (as desperately needed) to produce COMPLETE works. These stories should be allowed to progress unrestrained by "Big Business Fears" or bottom line questionings! Put more "resource faith" in the hands of such talented authors, and they WILL produce successful, profitable works which will be MORE than worthy enough to carry the "Amazon Originals" name!!

The narration was done very well so no complaints there!
I highly recommend this story to everyone. It's short so you can't use the "I don't have time" excuse. Hee hee.
Witty and Entertaining!
