The author of the Pulitzer Prize–finalist The Feud blurs reality in
this breakneck thriller following one man’s encounter with pure evil
in high tops. John Felton is a creature of habit. His job in real
estate comes with no surprises; it’s respectable work he can be
proud of. Routine has been kind to him, but when a normal Monday of
looking after the kids gets interrupted by a ringing of his doorbell,
John may have to kiss his uneventful life goodbye . . .
Richie’s car is stalled just at the bottom of the hill and he needs
a push start. John agrees to help and then accepts a ride, though
he’s not entire sure why. After stepping into Richie’s car, John
is driven far away from the reality he once knew and dragged into
Richie’s frightening world—one event at a time. To make matters
worse, the longer he spends in Richie’s company the harder it is for
the people around him to distinguish John from this curly-haired devil
in a baseball cap. John must put an end to Richie’s mad and
murderous adventure before it reaches the most terrifying place of
all—John’s very own home. “The plot gets nicely
complicated . . . and the entire contraption claps together in a
great, unpredictable, satisfying calamity.” —The New York Times
Book Review “Spare, meticulous prose . . . Sharply evocative
of human weakness and rage.” —The Washington Post
