The Stepford Wives

When Joanna Eberhart and her husband Walter moved to the quiet suburb of Stepford, she thought they had left behind the dangers of the crime-ridden city. Joanna felt safe now. Stepford seemed such a pleasant town.

Then, little by little, dark suspicions began to blacken the bright picture. Stepford wasn't just another quiet little town. Not at all. There was an evil secret hidden in Stepford...a secret Joanna was almost afraid to guess.

In this fiendishly entertaining novel, Ira Levin takes us into the suburbs, where the wives of Stepford fall prey to an unspeakable menace. You will never forget Stepford; from now on, there's a certain kind of woman who will be knon as a Stepford wife. --back cover
