The past five years of Emmaline's life have been dominated by two things; studying endangered species of moths for her master's thesis, and dodging a dark and terrifying stalker that always seems to be able to find her, no matter where she goes.
She knows one day her luck will run out, and he'll escalate to things she doesn't want to imagine. He's already pushed past boundaries she never dreamed anyone would.
Emmaline isn't exactly trying her hardest to escape him, either.
Maybe that's why he was able to break in so easily and abduct her. He takes her to a house deep within the woods of West Virginia, and tells her he'll never let her go-until she never wants to leave.
There's deeper secrets lurking in the woods just beyond the giant glass panes in the living room, besides her mysterious and dangerous captor. And the dreams Emmaline keeps having encourage her to explore the inexplicable connection she has to this place that started long before Will began to stalk her.
