A new family moves into an old house—and a new chapter of its deadly history begins—in the New York Times bestselling author's psychological thriller.
Divorcée Caitlin Stoller and her children recently moved into a charming old house in the coastal town of Echo, Washington. The place was a bargain, but as weeks pass, Caitlin starts receiving messages—first friendly, then unsettling—hinting at the property's dark past . . .
Caitlin's daughter, Lindsay, isn't fitting in at the local high school. To make matters worse, there are stories of students disappearing without a trace. Caitlin doesn't want to believe the whispers—about her home or Lindsay's school. But as personal items go missing, and dangerous accidents become frequent, it seems clear that something strange is going on.
The Watcher knows how to get inside the Stollers' home—and inside their heads. The rumors are true. But the full horror is even worse. There's no escaping the nightmare that started here long ago, and no place to hide from a killer who knows exactly how this story will end . . .
