The Witness

Chloe has been planning her escape for four days.

Sneak out the bedroom window after dark. Cross the backyard. Meet Tyler two streets over. Be back before anyone notices.

Simple.

Then the power grid fails ? and the neighborhood goes completely, utterly dark.

For Chloe, the blackout isn't a problem. It's cover. No porch lights. No security cameras. No one watching.

She couldn't be more wrong.

What she sees through the gap in the fence changes everything. She has footage no one was supposed to capture, on a phone with no signal, in a neighborhood with no power ? and the man on the other side of that fence knows exactly what she saw.

The Witness is the second book in The Blackout series ? a relentless, multi-POV psychological thriller in which the same catastrophic night unfolds through four different sets of eyes. Told entirely from Chloe's perspective, this is the story of a sixteen-year-old girl who did everything right when everything went wrong ? and the night that will define the rest of her life.

For readers who love Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train, and Local Gone Missing ? a propulsive, suffocating thriller that will have you holding your breath from the first page to the last.

Can be read standalone or as part of the full series.
