Beware the Woman

Jacy goes to the Michigan woods with her husband. The isolation starts feeling less like a vacation and more like a trap. Being pregnant makes her feel especially fragile in that big house.

“He was watching her. He was always watching her.”

Jed is so attentive to Jacy. It feels sweet at first. Then his care starts to feel like he is monitoring her every move.

The father in law Dr. Ash is terrifying. He treats Jacy like an incubator instead of a person. It made my skin crawl how he controlled her diet.

“The past is never dead. It’s not even past.”

Family secrets stay buried in the dirt up there. Nobody talks about Jed’s mother. The silence in that house is louder than the wind.
