Description
A woman wakes in the dead of night to find a stranger in her bedroom—close enough to feel, silent enough to terrify. Frozen by fear, she can only watch as the encounter begins to blur the boundaries between imagination and reality, forcing her to confront what she has been writing, avoiding, and refusing to name. As the man’s presence grows more insistent, the story turns inward and outward at once, exploring obsession, control, and the fragile line between creativity and compulsion. With Karin Fossum’s taut, psychologically driven style, the novel builds suspense through intimate detail and moral unease, asking what it means to be “broken” when the threat comes from within as much as without.
