"Harvest Home" is larger, more richly wrought than "The Other." It is even more profoundly chilling. It begins in drowsy, sunlit tranquility. Pleasingly, convincingly, inexorably, the author lures us into a countryside that is the landscape of our nostalgic fantasies, takes us into the life of a man with whom we affectionately identify - Ned Constantine's dream of an idyllic life away from the city is our own - and lets us watch that dream come true. Page by hypnotic page, "Harvest Home" will more than fulfill the expectations of the millions of readers who were held spellbound by Thomas Tryon's first great bestseller.
