Synopsis
In the tradition of Olive Kitteridge and The Woman Upstairs , this "deeply human and morally saturated novel" ( Library Journal , starred review) explores how a terrible crime changed one woman's life forever. Lida Stearl prides herself on always do the right thing--it has served her well throughout her life as she built a career as an orthodontist, maintained a happy marriage, and raised her young niece after the murder of her sister by her brother-in-law, Clarence Lusk. But now that she's widowed, retired, and an empty nester, the small perfections of her orderly life aren't enough to stop her from feeling adrift. Then a well-intentioned birthday gift leads her to discover that Clarence, on death row for his crime, is seeking pen pals from the outside as he prepares for his final appeal. For the first time in her life, Lida crosses a line--she begins to write him, pretending to be a naïve, flirtatious twenty-three year old, in an effort to seek retribution. As letters pass steadily between Lida and Clarence, her obsession with revenge unfolds and she begins to question her morality. The Done Thing is an utterly memorable and engrossing exploration of forgiveness, loyalty, and justice, and how a tragic event can suddenly change a life's course., In the tradition of Olive Kitteridge and The Woman Upstairs , this "deeply human and morally saturated novel" ( Library Journal , starred review) explores how a terrible crime changed one woman's life forever.

    A rocky start after I had to NUDGE the Seller into checking on my order after MORE than a week with NOTHING happening... But Seller communication was GOOD and the item showed up, well packaged, within the delivery window. Item was well priced, and they had a series that I STRUGGLED to find elsewhere, in NEW condition. I would recommend this seller if you can't find it elsewhere, that's the best I can give them.
