Even Numbers by Barbara Grovner

Dominga had thought she found the love of her life with her new husband. James was a Dr. but he was also a sick pedophile who fed on the sickness of molesting young children, even one as young as the age of two. Along with the above mentioned children, he began sexually abusing his step-daughter Olivia at the age of just five years old.

He told Olivia that Even Numbers was a game, a game that was just to be between them and NO ONE could ever know. He would reward her with gifts after each game, as the years progressed so did the height of sexual activity. At age thirteen Olivia ends up pregnant… at the same time as her mother; from the same man.

Dominga is so blind, she does not see or notice anything going on between the two, she also has no idea what he does when he cruises the town at night; he’s searching for more needy single women with little girls at home.

Barbara Grovener’s book, Even Numbers is told from the “fly on the wall” perspective, this book tells about the all to real happenings of sexual predators and the victims. Sexual molestation and abuse is a huge issue in this world, and Ms. Grovener only tells you the tale of one family but in reality there are uncountable numbers that still have witnessed this in their lives. James is a sick man, but it would not be the guilt that killed him, it would be something else. Sometimes the story was overly detailed but it was still a book that I couldn’t put down. 4 Hearts
