In this propulsive new thriller from the author of the break-out debut The Quiet Tenant, a reunion between estranged siblings is interrupted when a woman is found murdered at their luxury vacation resort, dredging up memories from a shared childhood they’ve tried to keep buried in the past.

Aidan Thomas é considerado um homem de família exemplar. Querido por todos na pequena cidade em que vive, é aquele tipo de vizinho que sempre parece disposto a oferecer ajuda, uma palavra amiga ou uma xícara de açúcar. Mas o que mesmo os mais próximos dele não sabem é que Aidan esconde um segredo sombrio: ele é um serial killer. Oito mulheres já morreram em suas mãos, e agora chegou a vez de sua nova vítima, Rachel, presa em um galpão no quintal.

Inquietante. Oscura. Brillante. Descubre la nueva voz del suspense psicológico. Regla número uno para seguir con vida: pase lo que pase, no digas nada. Aidan Thomas es un hombre modélico, padre de familia, trabajador y muy querido en la pequeña comunidad donde vive. Pero detrás de esa fachada de aparente perfección oculta un oscuro secreto: tiene a una mujer secuestrada en su cobertizo. Desde su cautiverio, Rachel lleva cinco años estudiando a Aidan para mantenerse con vida.

Aidan Thomas is a hard-working family man and a somewhat beloved figure in the small upstate New York town where he lives. He’s the kind of man who always lends a hand and has a good word for everyone. But Aidan has a dark secret he’s been keeping from everyone in town and those closest to him. He’s a kidnapper and serial killer. Aidan has murdered eight women and there’s a ninth he has earmarked for death: Rachel, imprisoned in a backyard shed, fearing for her life.

Er gilt als der perfekte Vater und Nachbar: der Witwer Aidan. Charmant, hilfsbereit und fürsorglich. Nur Rachel – diesen Namen hat er ihr gegeben – kennt seine düstere Seite. Denn seit fünf Jahren wird sie von Aidan in dessen Schuppen gefangen gehalten. Als er gezwungen ist umzuziehen, überredet Rachel ihn, sie ins neue Haus mitzunehmen. Sie wird im Gästezimmer einquartiert, wo sie die meiste Zeit angekettet ans Bett oder die Heizung verbringt. Auf den Moment wartend, in dem sie fliehen kann. Doch dann lernt Aidan Emily kennen, eine junge Barkeeperin.
