Nelle and Evan Pereira were thrilled to close on a spacious paradise nestled against a state forest in Massachusetts. Three months later their peace is destroyed when an intruder captures Nelle home by herself. Overpowered by the aggressive stranger, she is forced down to the cold, musty basement where he ties her to a chair. The intruder has a singular, if unusual, demand: he wants her to make a phone call. One that Nelle isn't confident she can make, even though her life depends on it. This was no chance encounter; it was a carefully planned attack. Their secluded home means no one will hear them scream. Before this long day is through, Nelle and Evan-- and the dangerous secret they share-- will bring a violent reckoning down upon all of them. -- adapted from jacket
