The Intruder
ByPublisher Description
Jacob Schiff has a good career, a beautiful home in New York City, and a loving family. John Gates has none of those things. A psychiatric patient with a traumatic past, John received professional treatment from Jacob's wife, with little success. Now, he's following her and lingering near the Schiffs's front door, menacing and harassing them at every opportunity—convinced that what Jacob has rightfully belongs to him instead.
But Jacob Schiff has endured some brutal experiences too, and he has an angry streak. When, in desperation, he decides to take action to protect himself and his loved ones, the encounter takes a turn he didn't predict, and everything he was trying to save may be utterly destroyed.
From the Edgar Award–winning author of

“This book was pretty mid not gonna lie. It was extremely hard to finish as it was just hard to follow and personally just wasn’t a fan of the writing style. At no point was I on the edge of my seat or anxious on what was gonna happen next, I personally thought this book was boring.”
