The classic tale of terror about a woman fighting for survival after a romantic getaway gone wrong, from #1 New York Times bestselling author and master storyteller Stephen King.

Over the next twenty-eight hours, in the lakeside house that has become her prison, Jessie will come face-to-face with all the things she has ever feared. Her only company is a hungry, stray dog and the various voices that fill her mind. As night comes, she is unsure whether it is her imagination—or if she has another companion: someone watching her from the corner of her dark bedroom....
