Read the Excerpt

“Chilling and atmospheric! Night Watcher grips you with a sense of voyeurism as though you’re the one being watched.” –  Jeneva Rose, New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Divorce

Nola Strate thought she’d escaped the shadows of her past—until the stitched eyes returned. Haunted by a childhood encounter with the elusive Hiding Man, she now hosts Night Watch, a late-night radio show steeped in paranoia.

But when a caller describes a live break-in echoing her own nightmare, Nola’s dread resurfaces. As strange neighbors lurk, bodies appear, and suspicion creeps toward her own family, Nola must unmask the Hiding Man.
