Hide and Seek: A Novel

Søren Sveistrup

"The author of The Chestnut Man and creator of the hit television series The Killing returns with a twisty, breakneck psychological thriller that takes an innocent children's game to its most terrifying and diabolical extreme. Count to one, count to two . . . A strange voice from inside the woods, repeating a child's counting rhyme. Count to four, count to five . . . A body discovered in the water. You're trying to go home. Will you make it alive? Thirty years later, a woman begins receiving a string of anonymous text messages, repeating that same rhyme. Found you. Then she disappears . . . On Valentine's Day, detectives Naia Thulin and Mark Hess are searching to find the missing woman. But when they uncover links to a decades-old cold case, their investigation takes a terrifying turn. A violent killer is on the loose. Can Hess and Thulin catch them, before they strike again?"-- Provided by publisher.
