The Intruder by Freida McFadden, Hardcover

Synopsis

In the middle of a storm, a girl appears on Casey's doorstep, obviously in need of help.

She's young. She's alone. And, Casey soon learns, she's desperate.

The girl is clearly running from something, but she won't say what. When Casey tries to look learn more, she gets hostile. When Casey discovers disturbing diary entries and drawings in her meager backpack, she gets violent.

This will be the longest night of Casey's life.

Who knows what the storm will blow in…

Casey's cabin in the wilderness is not built for a hurricane. Her roof shakes, the lights flicker, and the tree outside her front door sways ominously in the wind. But she's a lot more worried about the girl she discovers lurking outside her kitchen window.

She’s young. She’s alone. And she’s covered in blood.

The girl won't explain where she came from, or loosen her grip on the knife in her right hand. And when Casey makes a disturbing discovery in the middle of the night, things take a turn for the worse.

The girl has a dark secret. One she’ll kill to keep. And if Casey gets too close to the truth, she may not live to see the morning.

In this taut, deadly tale of survival and desperation, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden explores how far one girl will go to save herself.
