Synopsis

A widowed mother is terrorized by a stalker with unfathomable intent in a novel of cold-blooded suspense by the Shamus Award–winning author of The Temporary Agent.When Kate Burke is awakened one night by a sound outside her window, her PTSD is triggered. Was it simply a deer crossing her secluded backyard? Or was it intruders? Because Kate still lives with the dreadful memories of her husband’s murder during a seemingly random home invasion two years before, she knows the answer can mean the difference between life and death.But when she discovers the unsettling ways her property has been vandalized the next day, Kate is forced to conclude the worst: someone is watching her.Kate decides to rent out her estranged sister’s onetime cottage, which sits on her property, for the summer. Another set of eyes around the place won’t hurt. And with additional support from friends and family, Kate should be feeling safe.Instead, the vandalism is escalating. So are the anonymous late-night calls and texts, each one more disturbing and violating than the last. Whoever is targeting Kate, whatever their motive or terrifying endgame, the footsteps in the dark are getting closer.

Goodreads review by Nicole

Right now the book reads like a screen plan. "She walks into the room and..." This doesn't allow for a good flow. I'm waiting for the author to give stage directions. It gives the feel of "And then, and then, and then" I want to be in the main characters head, not an audience member. The story is gr......more

Goodreads review by Bandit

I absolutely hate not knowing how long the book is and for some inexplicable reason the page count of The Cottage has been made a secret all over the www. So I braved going in, not knowing the length of the commitment, based purely on the fact that the only other boom I read by the author wasn’t te......more
