The Key Holder

You lock your doors to keep strangers out. But what if the danger already has a key?

When Lena Carter allows the building superintendent and his silent maintenance worker into her apartment for what appears to be a routine inspection, she thinks nothing of it. By nightfall, however, everything changes.

She awakens to the sound of footsteps.

Inside her apartment.

The deadbolt is still locked. The security chain is still fastened. Yet someone is standing in the darkness outside her bedroom... watching her sleep.

By morning, there is no evidence anyone was there—except for subtle changes only she notices. A moved photograph. An open cabinet. A key that wasn't there before.

As the terrifying nighttime visits continue, Lena uncovers a chilling secret hidden within the aging apartment complex. Tenants have vanished for decades. Maintenance records have been altered. Entire floors have been sealed off. And the superintendent everyone insists disappeared nearly forty years ago... still walks the halls after midnight.

Some doors were never meant to be opened.

Some keys were never meant to be found.

And once The Keyholder knows your name...

No lock in the world can keep him out.

From K. L. Blackthorn, bestselling author of The Shadows of Camp Chikiwawa, comes a relentless psychological suspense thriller where the safest place you know becomes the one place you'll fear the most.
