Book Description
Recently widowed, Janice McKendry and her three children—teens Lucas and Danica, and ten-year-old Jordyn—have just moved into an old Victorian manor in the small Ontario town of Brookeford. Enchanted by all things historical, especially those with an intriguing story, Janice’s husband, Todd, had found the house and persuaded Janice to move there. A teacher and a writer, Todd had thoroughly researched the mysterious house and begun to write a trilogy about it. Unfortunately, Todd’s untimely passing meant he failed to share his findings: that a malevolent something—or someone—has been haunting it for years. Unaware of the local rumors, Janice and the kids move in, and Jordyn even makes a new friend: a girl her own age who seems to know a lot about the house and surrounding property. Soon after, strange things start to happen—curtains shutting, lights flickering, a picture moves around—but they are unconvinced that it’s not just their minds playing tricks on them. And as the family meets the locals, they learn many believe a ghost lives there. But it’s not until one night when the dinner table starts to rise that the McKendrys start believing the place is haunted. When Janice begins to read the trilogy Todd was writing before he died, she is shocked to find not only are the books about the history of the manor, but what is happening now; and the last book is unfinished. From the books, the McKendrys learn all about the dark history of the house and the mystery surrounding the disappearance of a young girl—a little girl much like the one Jordyn has been playing with ...

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A high-stakes hide-and-seek competition turns deadly in this “marvelously creepy thrill ride of a book that keeps twisting until the very end” (Karen M. McManus, author of One of Us Is Lying) “The suspenseful plot combines elements of Thomas Tryon’s classic Harvest Home, Netflix’s Squid Game, and the social commentary of Jordan Peele’s film oeuvre and mixes these with a revelatory pacing reminiscent of Spielberg’s Jaws.”—Booklist The challenge: Spend a week hiding in an abandoned amusement park and don’t get caught. The prize: enough money to change everything. Even though everyone is desperate to win—to seize a dream future or escape a haunting past—Mack is sure she can beat her competitors. All she has to do is hide, and she’s an expert at that. It’s the reason she’s alive and her family isn’t. But as the people around her begin disappearing one by one, Mack realizes that this competition is even more sinister than she imagined, and that together might be the only way to survive. Fourteen competitors. Seven days. Everywhere to hide but nowhere to run. Come out, come out, wherever you are.
