I hated this book. The main character was so creepy (and not in a good way), perverted and gross. The type of book, you can tell is written by a man due to the creepy and objectifying comments made about the female characters.

Through suspending belief a tad bit this made for a fun, enaging read!
I didn't see the ending coming which was nice!
A nice easy listen and I was intrigued to learn more of the characters backstories.

I am glad my apartment doesn’t have an attic or crawl space. Reading this soon after 'Her Every Fear' , which was also about intruders, voyeurs and unknown co-residents, now I need something to cleanse my head. The book was creepy, the story starts off with full speed from the first page. There is no buildup or any talks about the mundane activities of the neighborhood where Brogan decides to take refuge. This was a page turner, with many a nail-biting moment. The twist in the end threw me off.

The audible narration by Matt Addis was excellent.
Adding more books by David Jackson to my TBR pile
