Publisher's summary

Nya can’t remember the last time she felt safe.

The rundown rental house didn’t seem so bad at first. But now, someone is stealing her food. Rattling her bedroom doorknob. Digging through her belongings.

Each night brings more disturbing incidents. And each night, Nya is more convinced that it’s not an intruder. She suspects the culprit is hiding in plain sight: her peculiar roommate-of-necessity, Sidney.

Nya can’t afford to live anywhere else. The horrible rental is her only option. In a few months, she’ll finish her final semester of college—and get the hell out of dodge. But to her horror, the sinister mind games are just the beginning. Before long, she’s forced to face the possibility that her physical safety may be at risk. Maybe even her life.

The truth is more terrifying than Nya could have guessed. And as the situation spirals out of control, it’s suddenly clear that surviving the night may no longer be an option.

Awesome story

I really liked this story! It was fairly fast paced and really interesting. I listened to the audiobook and the narration was superb. However, if I heard “suck it up buttercup” one more time I was going to scream. That was incredibly annoying and the only thing about this book I didn’t like.

Fantastic foreshadowing!

The suspense in this book was perfect. This had my brain going wild! One of the most well written thrillers I have read to date.

My Favorite New Author

I absolutely loved this book. The suspense and thrill without all the gore is perfect. I've found myself scared at times in a healthy way listening to the audio. I have read/listened to 3 books and starting on 4th. We have a Tiktok page with over 600K followers and I'm going to share my love of this author and writing with our followers (Ragspartyof5). Please, please keep writing!

Amazing Read!

The intense story line will have you right from the gitgo. I found myself yelling out loud at parts telling characters what to do and not do. Totally recommend this book!
