This is a memoir that reads like a psychological suspense thriller with an implausible conspiratorial subplot. It is the true account of a young, highly successful New York court reporter who in 1987 moves to Seaport, Florida, to pursue a career as a fine artist. Lorraine Jardonek was beautiful, intelligent, talented … and lonely when she became engaged to the unpolished but charming and hardworking Don Jackson, a master plumber and … miscreant. Their unlikely romance was interrupted by Don’s miscreant behavior that led her to have him charged with a felony. When his probation ended, with a new set of "friends" in the legal/law enforcement community, he called on her with an ostensibly contrite heart and a plan of revenge so cruel and twisted … she ended up losing everything … including her mind. This modern day *Gaslight has an added dimension so unique it took her twelve years─four of them spent living in her car─to realize how he did it.
*Gaslight is a 1940s film adapatation derived from the 1938 stage play Gas Light. The plot concerns a husband who attempts to drive his wife to insanity. The title stems from the husband’s subtle dimming of the house’s gas lights, which she accurately notices and which the husband insists she’s imagining. (Wikipedia August 2011)
