Intruder by Nick Clausen is the type of tale that make me incredibly grateful that I have a security system at our house…

Full disclosure: I was given a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my rating in any way.

Okay, that cover is seriously spooky! And the tag line “TONIGHT LINDA DIES”?! I’m so in!

The story begins with poor Linda waking up on the couch. She senses that she’s not alone but tries to talk herself out of it. Then a news announcement comes on the TV of a man that escaped a psychiatric facility and is extremely volatile. As Linda goes to search the house, she realizes her initial thought was correct. Someone is in the house with her…

This story was incredibly eerie. The thought of someone breaking into my house is one of my biggest fears! The thoughts that we see going through Linda’s mind absolutely nail the anxiety-filled tension that I’ve felt quite a few times since buying our house. Luckily, we have an alarm system and I sleep much better now, but there’s always the “what if” thoughts that go through my mind…

AND THAT ENDING!

Right now, this tale is exclusive to Nick’s readers club, but keep an eye out for this one and snag it the second you can!
