Terror Inside These Four Walls
Every fan of the standalone novel, What Happens in This House Stays in This House, knows that Raymond Kramer was a force to be reckoned with. Until now, no one knew how or why he became a monster. It was as if he was born that way, but the fact is that he wasn’t. Before Raymond became a violent sadistic man, he was a sweet loving boy with dreams of one day being someone important. An abusive murderer was never in his cards, at least not the hand that he was initially dealt.
With the strong belief that dominating and scaring your children would make them obedient, Raymond’s parents, Liz and Frank Kramer, made him and his brother, Renard’s, childhood a living hell. The physical abuse that he and his brother received from their father along with the psychological abuse that their mother dished out invalidated him and left behind wounds and scars that he would later pass down to his own family.
After years of growing up in an abusive household and dealing with manipulation from the people who were supposed to nurture and protect him, Raymond was then stuck with unrealistic expectations and a very low tolerance for disrespect. He became emotionally numb to the feelings of others as a coping mechanism to avoid dealing with the pain and anger that lied deeply within him.
As you flip through the pages of Terror Inside These Four Walls, you will gain firsthand experience of the terrifying moments that would later lead to Raymond’s evilness and his untimely death.

Generational curses
Children learn from their environment. What they see and hear they will turn around and do the exact same thing. As a child you look to your parents, your family for guidance. And depending on what you are taught and what you see is how children will learn to deal with their issues. This book is so sad because it is generation upon generation of abuse and "secrets". What happens in this house stays in this house! I really hate that saying. If opens up the window for abuse, secrets, hurt pain. We have to be brave enough as adults to stand up not just for ourselves but for our children as well! I do feel sympathy to an extent for the, grandpa, mom, dad however they had a choice to break the system and they choose not too!

a good read
God is amazing.Sometimes unfortunate when people are suffering of the hand of abusive parents and it’s follow generations to generations. But these children of the last generation of Raymond Kramer was the son of Frank Kramer was abusive to him when he was young. Ramen Kramer married Loretta and has seven children this is the last generation of the tree and I was saved by God and Larreta’s mother Ella she’s a Phenomenal lady she raise her grandchildren when her daughter dies suffer in the hands of her husband Raymond Kramer passed away the children are now grown with they own children they only relationships and doing better they have not been abused I think God for that. This was a very good read

First I just want to say abuse is real and I sympathize with any child going through it and I most definitely hope God send them some help. I'm against any weak ass female who dumb enough to allow it. I hate weak women. Make me want to put my own knot or 2 upside they head. Those grandkids are much better than me cause aint no way in hell I would have been there for Liz or went to her funeral.
Now the reason I gave 1 star is simply because this book is boring. I skipped the 18th chapter after Bryan went to juvie. I love everything Lady Lissa write but not this 1 but oh well it is what it is!

Toxic
This book is a prime example of generational curses and its effects on families. Children learn by example and what these fathers taught was toxic - domestic abuse.
I understand that it may be hard for an adult to escape an abuser, but when children are being abused, it should be motivation to remove them from the environment.
This book was realistic but sad. Hopefully it'll give someone the push to escape such violence.

Great read!
Talk about generational curses and the apple not falling too far from the tree, these men were straight up toxic. It amazed me that some of the women were just as toxic. Many people say “what happens in this house stays in this house”, therefore allowing many children and some adults to be abused in their own homes. Lady Lissa always know how to take a tough subject and turn it into an enjoyable read

Hard storyline, but a good story
This was a page Turner because of the dysfunction and well written characters. The backstories answered many questions, but I still had no sympathy for the abusers. The only thing I didn’t like was the absence of the M.C.’s final chapter before death. I wanted to know what was going on in his mind before he made the life altering decision. The update on the current family wasn’t impactful, and took away from the story.

This story was good it showed how the generation curse effected a family of men, To me it was passed down because the youngest son never got any help after his father killed his big brother, it effected him and he took it out his wife and children but in end those children became survivors !!

Wow great read…
This explained things in much more detail. It sad that they all went through this generational curse but stopped at some point. Sometimes that’s how it is when you don’t forgive and move forward. I can’t say I can relate but I understand how it is for some people. This was well worth the wait great job. Must read….

made me upset but the book is great check it out
Great read I stayed up all night reading this story It saddens me to think this actually happens behind closed doors and kids suffer it makes me angry that the mother’s or that father’s let their spouses abuse them but to stand there and watch them do it to an innocent child is atrocious

Great Read
This was a well written book. It was a sad but true look into what physical and emotional is for a family. She gave a view of all the characters mindset and how they became who they are. I wanted more. Generations curses have to be a conscious deliberate decision and with professional help it can be broken. AWESOME AWARENESS

I have to say, I have yet to read a book by Lady Lissa, that I didn't like. I highly recommend you read this in order to fully understand and enjoy this story. I guarantee a great read and you won't be disappointed.

Speechless
WOW that was a tear jerker. Goes to show that despite what you went through or go through. You can change. Those kids could've been just like their great-grandfather. Their grandfather/mother. Or their father. Those chose a different path.

This book was very sad. That generational behavior needs immediate attention because it gets out of hand.
If you’re in an abusive situation get out immediately before it’s too late.

Wow
This book will have you crying through the whole thing because the men were evil beating on their women. I hate Ronnie the father felt like he had to kill their mom. But I’m glad the kids didn’t treat their spouses like that

The truth abuse can stop
I loved this book but I was sad at the same time time. I feel like like it was said at the end with help we don’t have to keep the abuse going in the family. Read if you been abuse or you are the abuser.

How fiction mirrors real life
No words can describe what this book means to me, and how close it mirrored parts of my adult life, but having my family in my corner when all was said and done. I'm still here and doing just fine.

great great read
I was soooo mad after reading the first couple of chapters how the cycle of abuse was going. But I am so glad it was broken after Loratta and Raymond’s kids.
