The Stranger Inside


 The Stranger Inside by Laura Benedict   345 pages

Kimber comes home one night to find a stranger living in her house, insisting that he has rented it from her and he has the paperwork to prove it. Kimber definitely didn't invite this man, who she has never seen before, to move in. And, when he tells her that he knows a secret about her and will tell everyone else, she's scared. But she's also angry. This man isn't after her money or her house --- he wants to destroy her life.

This psychological drama was an interesting read. I didn't find Kimber to be a likeable character most of the time, although I wanted to find out what was going to happen in the story. This is a creepy, multilayered story where you know something's wrong with some of the characters and you don't know who Kimber can trust. And, the premise of someone moving into your house and changing the locks is disturbing all by itself.  Overall, a good read with a satisfying ending.
