The Showing

A gripping psychological thriller with a shocking twist

She sells dream homes. Someone's filling them with bodies.

I have a routine, and the routine keeps me sane.

Five years ago, I survived a killer. I was a real estate agent in Augusta, showing a house to a man who seemed perfectly normal—until he wasn't. I escaped. I moved to Nashville. I changed my name and rebuilt my life, one open house at a time.

I don't talk about what happened. I don't think about it. I check the locks twice and flinch at loud noises and tell myself the past can't hurt me anymore.

I'm wrong.

When a client is murdered at one of my listings, the nightmare starts again. Then a colleague disappears. Then another. The police are circling, asking questions I don't want to answer, looking at me like I'm hiding something.

Maybe I am.

Because the deeper I dig, the less I recognize the life I've built. Memories that should be sharp are wrapped in fog. Details I've repeated a hundred times don't add up. And someone knows things about me that no one should know—things even I can't remember.

The women around me are dying. The killer is getting closer. And the truth I've been running from?

It's catching up with me.

I thought I survived the worst night of my life.

I thought wrong.

AI voice

I did not like the AI voice. It was flat. The story itself was good.
