Emily Winters thought she had found the perfect man. Elliot Vance is everything she ever dreamed of-charming, intense, and ready to build a life together at his secluded farmhouse. Emily goes willingly into his world, embracing a romance that feels like a fairy tale come true.
But for Officer Courtney Lawson, the "perfect" life in Shadowbrook is starting to look like a cemetery. Courtney has been tracking a series of disappearances-women who seem to vanish into thin air, leaving behind nothing but a trail that always goes cold. She's the only one who sees the pattern, and she knows time is running out for the next victim.
In the shadows of the farmhouse, the dream quickly becomes a nightmare. When Elliot's devotion turns to boredom, his true self is revealed, and Emily is forced to face a terrifying reality: the man she loves is a monster, and the farmhouse is where he keeps his perfect collection. While Courtney desperately tries to piece together the clues, Emily must find a way to survive the man she gave her heart to before she becomes the latest permanent addition to his gallery.
