Bloodline
“Saturday, November 3 Six p.m.
Anna Roffe Gassner did not know how much longer she would be able to stand it.
She had become a prisoner in her own home. Except for the cleaning woman who came in for a few hours once a week, Anna and the children were alone, completely at Walther’s mercy. He no longer bothered to conceal his hatred. Anna had been in the children’s room as they listened together to one of their favorite records.
“Welch ein Singen, Musizieren, Pfeifen, Zwitschken, Tiriliern…”
Walth...er had stormed in. “I’m sick of that!” he had yelled.

He had walked up to her, his eyes blazing, and he said, “We’re going to get rid of the children, Anna.”
In front of them!
He put his hands on her shoulders. “What happens in this house must be our secret” Our secret. Our secret.MoreLess
