Playground: Child of Divorce

By: Aron Beauregard

Narrated by: Lila Kerry

EVERY PLAYGROUND HAS A PROTOTYPE

Geraldine Borden has realized that there's one thing her bottomless wealth can't grant her: children. When an attempt to remedy her infertility fails, she's left with nothing but rage, jealousy, and a murderous idea. She aims to take a place that all children adore and transform it into a twisted arena of carnage. And while her true masterpiece is still under construction, she seeks to entertain herself with a crude prototype filled with barbaric backyard games.

Several children from a small New England city have gone missing under mysterious circumstances. This group of kids—who once believed fractured family and teen angst were their toughest battles—now have a whole new set of problems. With no parents to guide them, will the children thrust into Geraldine's nightmare world have the grit and determination to escape? Or will they fall victim to their sadistic captor?

The much-anticipated prequel to Aron Beauregard's controversial book "Playground" revisits some of the author's most reprehensible characters and pushes the limits of incendiary literature even further.

The vile first arc

I loved it all. Aaron has a phenomenal way with words that make you feel so many emotions at once!

Another solid book!

Loved this prequel!! Seemed just a LITTLE rushed in some spots but it no way does it take away from this being such a solid read!!!! Well done sir!

Yessss!!!!!

I cannot get enough of this twisted s#!$ !!! Aron is a genius and even though I listened to Playground (for the 2nd time) right before listening to this, I want to listen again!! Right now! Lila's narration is perfection! Phew, I need a shower and a nap....

LOVED IT

Was just as good as the first one. Read it if you love splatter punk. But watch your trigger warnings. It’s not for the faint of heart, but you won’t be disappointed. AB brought his A game.

I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone, but it’s also fantastic

As good as playground, not exactly. Some of the initial shock value is lost. But great story, interesting ending, kept me entertained and guessing most of the time! Can’t wait for the next one
