A shadow that disappears whenever she turns to look. Is it paranoia? Or is someone really watching her? As the days pass, the feeling only grows stronger. And more dangerous. Because he's not just watching anymore... he's getting closer. And he's convinced they're meant to be. Everything Chloe thought she knew about safety, trust - and love - is about to be shattered. After all, some obsessions don't want to stay in the dark.
