The Broken Room by Peter Clines
5.0

Hector is a gifted government operative who got out of the business and is now off the grid ready to drink himself to death. His former partner, Tim, guides Natalie, a pre-teen, to Hector telling her that Hector can help her and her friends that are part of "The Project." Hector is suspicious because Tim is dead.

What follows is not a ghost story but more of an action-packed Jack Reacher/Stranger Things type thriller pitting our protagonists against an atypical cosmic horror.

I loved it.
