26. The Case of Lucy Bending by Lawrence Sanders (1982)
Length: 440 pages
Genre: Contemporary Mystery
Started: 23 March 2012
Finished: 31 March 2012
Where did it come from? From a Library Book Sale
How long has it been on my TBR pile? Since 1 June 2009
Why do I have it? I do like contemporary mysteries and had read one of Lawrence Sanders' later books and enjoyed it.


Lucy is eight years old. She is an incredibly sweet and beautiful little girl with a precocious streak. Her worried parents send her to a psychiatrist when she begins to show signs of odd behavior. The psychiatrist searches for the reasons behind young Lucy's seductive and murderous intentions which seem incredibly practiced for an eight year old.


I really enjoyed this book. It delved into the effect that a parent's behavior has on a child's development. I give this book an A+!


A+! - (96-100%)
