The Hiding Place: A Novel

From the acclaimed author of The Chalk Man comes an unputdownable psychological thriller about a man who returns home to settle old scores - and uncovers a secret darker than he could have imagined.

Joe never wanted to come back to Arnhill.

After the way things ended with his old gang - the betrayal, the suicide - and what happened when his sister went missing, the last thing he wanted to do was return to his hometown.

But Joe doesn’t have a choice, not after a chilling email surfaces in his inbox: I know what happened to your sister.

It’s happening again....

Lying his way into a teaching job at his former high school is the easy part.

Facing off with onetime friends who aren’t too happy to have him back in town - while avoiding the enemies he’s made in the years since - is tougher.

But the hardest part of all will be returning to the abandoned mine where his life changed forever, and finally confronting the horrifying truth about Arnhill, his sister, and himself.
