Three of Ira Levin's most chilling and thought-provoking darkly psychological dramas

Betrayal. Deception. Madness. Here are three of Ira Levin's most tense, dark, and dramatic stage plays—presented for the first time in compilation form.

Interlock's psychological drama finds struggling concert pianist Paul in the sights of the older, aristocratic Mrs. Price. Once inside the walls of her Gramercy Park townhouse, can the bond between he and his youthful fiancé survive her manipulative designs? "A continuously entertaining study in corruption by logic." —Washington Evening Star

In Dr. Cook's Garden, newly minted physician Jim Tennyson experiences a flashpoint of crisis—and danger—when he returns to his Vermont hometown and takes the measure of his mentor, the town's resident physician. Is Greenfield Center's unusual good fortune just that—or does something more sinister play a role in its seeming perfection?

Having been cajoled into impersonating a family's long-lost daughter as an act of mercy for its last surviving relative, 1973 co-ed Susan Kerner finds herself seemingly locked inside the role. Or is she not Susan at all, but rather 1935's Veronica Brabissant—a troubled young woman desperately believing herself to be a later Susan? Enter Veronica's Room and uncover the truth.
