Product Description
THE LAUNDRY ROOM is about how a dysfunctional family in a West Side Manhattan apartment deals with an unusual and serious problem, and how finally they each at last come to terms with it. Their quest for knowledge is more painful and revealing than they'd imagined, but the solution to the problem was always close at hand, in the basement laundry room.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nifty, November 15, 2006
By T. Serrill (Edison, NJ) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A psychological chiller by an ace professional. A boy influenced by his parents. It has to be one more than the other, but which?
