I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for a review.  "Waterbury" by Katia Lief is a psychological thriller.  Katia Lief does a great job in developing her characters and describes the relationship each characters has with the other characters.  You get a really good sense of the personalities and I could almost feel as though I knew them.The story takes off with Stefan and Rudy planning to break into what they assume will be the empty house of Fiona Carson, a world renown author, over the Thanksgiving weekend and steal jewelry and cash.  In the meantime, Fiona's family is on their way to her house, located in rural Connecticut, after a change of plans on where Thanksgiving will be held.  Everyone's plans for the holiday becomes moot when they just try to survive.  Stefan and Rudy break into Fiona's house and are surprised that people are there.  In their panic, they take the family hostage where nothing happens as they plan and things quickly get out of control.The ending surprised me and was a little disturbing considering May's thought process and how she acted in the end.  In my opinion, nothing for May was resolved and there may be another story regarding her.
