Follow his rules. Don't call the police. Listen to his lessons. That's what Jack and his family were told. Held captive in their own house, they must face a growing storm of mental and physical trauma as they try to just stay alive.

But even if Jack can survive the horror of his childhood, will his tormentor ever leave him alone? And who is he really?

Outstanding!

I couldn't stop listing to it! It is very harsh and violent and creepy. Solidly into horror, but I loved it. Can't wait for Elias' next book!

awesome

I love this writer's imagination how he takes us with so many different places unthought of before

OUTSTANDING!!!

Elias Witherow is one of my favorite authors so I was PUMPED to see this added to Audible. I was not disappointed!!! Immaculate narration, captivating story line and over all amazing. I heard they are going to make it into a movie so that's exciting. Highly recommend this and his other books on Audible, as they are also great. All I need now is more!!!!!

Disturbing violence

Elias remains the king from r/nosleep. I’m pretty jaded when it comes to extreme horror stuff, but there are some scenes in this that will stick with me for a long time. Only reason I docked one star is for some logical plot problems, but honestly they were barely a distraction from the nightmares I come to Witherow for.

Had me quivering with antici…

pation. Ha! Seriously though, great premise and definitely keeps you engrossed. I’m usually really good with figuring out books straight away, but I honestly couldn’t figure out who/what the antagonist was until the author explained it!
