Kitty Haskell needs help. After recklessly killing her lying, cheating, no-good husband, Kitty turns to her sister, Rose, and her good friend, Stacia Tate Curran to help her cover up her crime. Together, the women concoct a plan to make it appear that Seth died in a boating accident far from home, all while casting suspicion on his mistress. What they don’t anticipate are the dire financial consequences of Seth’s disappearance, the indifferent response of Kitty’s children, and the strain of guilt on their relationships. Kitty’s life is further complicated by the addition of a perpetually drunk heiress, an adorable baby that resembles Kitty’s children, and the intriguing young artist that shows up in Kitty’s life just when she needs him most. As their plan expands to include more and more people, Kitty is less certain she can get away with murder.

The 2nd book in Elizabeth Hein’s Overlook Series, Escape Plan, was a delight to read. The plot took off in scene one with Kitty’s moment of passion. No, not bedroom scene of passion but a passionate murder scene. Kitty is done with hubby’s continual infidelity, iron rule over her home and life land now the selfish interuption of their daughter’s attending an Ivy league college. Hein’s storytelling was beautifully poignant and wonderfully emotional. She gave us a look at the changes taking place in the seventies and did so in such a way it touched my heart. She effectively presents backgrounds, values and points of view while interweaving them in the lives of her characters.Hein’s characters were strongly developed and well worth knowing. She developed not only her main characters but gave us glimpses of others. Her characters were damaged but redeemable. We saw an entire spectrum of passions lust, jealousy hate to love and forgiveness.

Escape Plan Overlook Book 2 edition by Elizabeth Hein Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I read Overlook two years ago. and I was thrilled to read the sequel, Escape Plan, recently. In this novel, we return to the matriarchal microcosm, Elizabeth Hein created in Overlook. It’s a self-contained town with a close knit community of do-gooders, gossips and busybodies, in the 70s. If you liked Desperate Housewives, you’ll love this novel, which tackles a lot of serious social issues as well as a few absurdly unexpected situations which contrast with some of the darkest topics. It’s so well written and has such engaging characters that you’ll keep turning the pages until you find out whether/how they manage to get away with their crime, or not. You'll also want to find out if Kitty can get her life back on track, fall in love again, and if she can she forgive Seth for the shocking and life changing secret she'll discover. An entertaining and thought provoking read.
I became an Elizabeth Hein fan with her first book, How to Climb the Eiffel Tower. Her work is richly complex, peopled with characters who show us what love means. Escape Plan is the second book in the Overlook series, following on the heels of Overlook, and I have to say, it is even better than the first book! I can't wait for the next Elizabeth Hein novel.
ESCAPE PLAN is an interesting look at several women's lives. Hein does a good job describing the characters so you care about them. Although all the women are privileged, they're all facing their own challenges and are the type of people you can picture knowing in real life. A lot of the loose ends in Overlook are resolved in this book, which has its own satisfying ending.
Disclosure I won a free copy of this book in a giveaway.
This is the second book in the Overlook series and you need to read Book 1 (Overlook) before this book.
Once again, Elizabeth Hein takes us to the fictional NC housing development of Overlook in the mid 70s. This book starts right where Overlook ended, but I can't tell you about that without spoiling Overlook. Kitty and her friend Stacia, work together to cover up a crime that Kitty committed in Overlook. They come up with a plan that will make it appear that the crime was committed by Seth's pregnant mistress (Seth is Kitty's husband). However, their guilt and money problems make covering up this crime more and more difficult.
I'd like to say more about this book but it's difficult to say too much without spoiling Overlook. What I will say is that this is a fun read, I enjoyed learning more about Kitty and Stacia and seeing their friendship grow. It's a fun book about strong women -- what more do you need to make a good novel?
Escape Plan is the sequel to Overlook. While it can be enjoyed out of sequence, I recommend reading Overlook first. The two books really make one single story if read in order.
There may be spoilers for Overlook in this review.
Kitty Haskell killed her husband (believe me, if you read book one, you'll think he deserved it and be cheering for her to get away with it). Now what? Not getting caught is only one of her problems. It's the 70s and she doesn't have a job, and Seth left them in debt. There's no insurance money since he's only missing legally speaking, not dead. Heck, she doesn't even own the car she was driving. She's a social pariah in Overlook where appearances are everything. And the mistress, the one her husband threatened to leave her for? You guessed it pregnant!
I really enjoyed watching Kitty come into her own in this novel. I liked her in Overlook, but now I love her. I was surprised by many of the twists of fate in Kitty's life and truly satisfied by the ending.
The 2nd book in Elizabeth Hein’s Overlook Series, Escape Plan, was a delight to read. The plot took off in scene one with Kitty’s moment of passion.
