___________

A desperate journalist looking for work.

A new mindfulness app that promises deep sleep.

A dead woman's voice heard during app-induced nightmares.
___________

Desperate journalist Nick Bishop takes a job profiling new mindfulness app, Clarity. Relaxing meditations are mixed with haunting 'sleep songs' where a woman's voice sings users into a deep sleep.

Then the nightmares begin.

Vivid and chilling, they feature a dead woman who calls Nick by name, whispering guidance – or are they threats?

Soon, he can't escape her voice. And that's when he makes a terrifying discovery: no one involved with Clarity has any interest in his article. Their interest is in him.

Because whilst he may not have any memory of it, he's one of twenty people who have heard this sinister song before, and the only one who is still alive...

Praise for this book

"WHERE THEY WAIT hums with creeping dread and mounting horror. It’s smart and scary, and the final act is like that last downhill plunge on a rollercoaster—terrifying, exhilarating, and unforgettable. I loved every page." - Richard Chizmar

"Tense and twisty." - Charlaine Harris

"Where They Wait is so readable you’ll be a couple of hundred pages in before you realize you’re terrified…and then you can’t put it down. Mesmerizing." - Stephen King

"A taut, creepy techno-chiller that will leave you hearing ghosts." - Paul Tremblay
