NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • How far would you go to save your family? In this masterwork of “terrific suspense” (The Philadelphia Inquirer), a mild-mannered family is tormented by an obsessed criminal—and decides to take matters into their own hands.
With an Introduction by Dean Koontz
“A powerful and frightening story.”—The New York Times
Sam Bowden has it all: a successful law career, a devoted wife, and three children. But a terrifying figure from Bowden’s past looms in the shadows, waiting to shatter his pristine existence.
Fourteen years ago, Bowden’s testimony put Max Cady behind bars. Ever since, the convicted rapist has been nursing a grudge into an unrelenting passion for revenge. Cady has been counting the days until he is set free, desperate to destroy the man he blames for all his troubles. Now that time has come.
