This is Thomas Christopher Greene's fourth book. Have you read any of his other books (Mirror Lake, I'll Never be Long Gone and Envious Moon)? If so, how do you think they compare to The Headmaster's Wife

No, I have not read any of his other books. I don't intend to read other titles nor will I recommend this book to book groups. "The Headmaster's Wife" has been on my TBR list since the hardback published. However, I was very disappointed with it. I found the writing style to be dry and mechanical--much like a lecture in a freshman psychology class.

I haven't yet read any of Thomas Christopher Greene's other novels, but I'm curious to find out how similar (or dissimilar) they are to this one and how he develops his characters. I once read that Steven Spielberg said you can only have one major scare in a movie because after that the audience will be expecting it. I wonder if it's the same way with having a major narrative switch in a book. I imagine Greene doesn't use this technique in his other books (?), so what clever methods does he use?
