Stalked
"For a heart-stopping moment, they’re gone, as if swallowed whole by the darkness and the soil below. The earth seems to hold its breath, time stretching and compressing into an odd dreamlike sensation as I stand frozen, watching, caught at the edge of this unfolding drama."
When Rachelle is compelled to return to her rural childhood home to care for her ailing mother, she must set aside her aspirations of a vibrant life in the big-city.
Isolated in endless cornfields, Rachelle finds herself overwhelmed by the monotony of country living. But soon, she begins to sense that something is not as it seems. Hidden among the tall stalks are unsettling secrets waiting to surface. Mysterious messages start to appear, leaving her fearing for her safety and questioning what might be happening in her own backyard.
“J.C. Ward’s STALKED is as eerie and unsettling as a stroll through the cornfields at night. Simmering with romantic tension and psychological suspense, it’s a great read for those that celebrate spooky season all year long. There were so many twists and turns I didn’t see coming!”
—Miranda Smith, author of SMILE FOR THE CAMERAS

This is a great debut novel. I really enjoyed the storyline as it pulled me in quickly. Early on the story does start to move a little slow, but as it picks up, it's difficult to put down.
JC Ward tells the story in such a detailed way that she makes it creepy, suspenseful and intriguing all at the same time. Like when you're watching a horror movie and you want to look away but you can't. She has me questioning everyone in the story and I just didn't know where it was all going, but in a good way. I definitely didn't see the end coming.
I am looking forward to reading book 2 Coasted!
