The Friend

With a friend like her, you'll never be alone again . . .

Leah Hunter has spent years mastering calm in the face of chaos. As a 911 dispatcher, she guides strangers through the worst moments of their lives. Then Amber joins the team. She seems friendly, helpful and attentive. But what begins as admiration soon becomes unsettling.

A strange gift left on Leah's desk. A message she doesn't remember sending. Items moved around her home. Now Leah is being watched. And the walls are closing in.

And when someone close to Leah disappears, the truth becomes impossible to outrun . . .

Obsession has a breaking point, and when it comes, will Leah be able to tell if she's running from a predator or from her own unraveling mind?

A slow-burn descent into paranoia and possession, The Friend asks:

What if the person who wants to save you . . . is the one who will never let you go?
