There was no reason to assume anything out of the ordinary was going on.

Strange noises in the apartment.
Impulsive behaviour.
Intense dreams.
It wasn't like everything went wrong all at once.
Shoplifting.
Fighting.
Blackouts.

There must be a reasonable explanation for all this.

It will scare the pants off you. It is a perfect horror novel. - Paul Tremblay
Deeply scary. - The Times
Terrifying. - Daily Mail
Sinister. - Time Out
