The White Garden
Adrienne Perry
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing - especially in the hands of a budding psychoanalyst!
Laurie Huntington is nineteen, bright, and impersonally scientific.
Her family has its faults, but Laurie can analyze them - to death!
She's turned the house into an experimental maze.
When Laurie administers one of her ink blot tests to her mother's friends who are important to her father's getting a much needed bank loan, matters explode!
