Well you certainly are on an Abbett kick this week, aren't you? But it's a good thing! Anytime I can see multiple originals from the best illustrators in quick succession, I'm all in! This is a very disturbing image. When you actually stop and take the time to put yourself in the woman's place and think what it must feel like to be in that position, desperately trying to find a way out, all the while knowing your last few seconds of life are ticking away and that it will end in agonizing panic and torture, it's really quite sobering.
