Rig misses his dad and sister. Since the divorce, they have left to live in another city.  Rig stayed with his mother, who is an artist, but sometimes he feels as if she is simply not in touch with life.  Curious to see what his sister is up to, Rig googles her and finds her in all kinds of pictures of her college life.  He also finds one web site that is different from all the rest.  On the surface, it seems to be a romantic web site about his sister, but as he views it, he begins to feel that something is not right.  He has a gut feeling that this isn't an ordinary web site.  He visits his father and shows him the contents of the web site and they agree.  What happens next is the most fearful event of Rig’s life. He is sure that his sister is being stalked, and he is afraid that it is escalating.  He doesn't know why it is happening, but if he wants to save his sister, he had better figure it out soon.

This story is a fast and scary read, a book that you will not be able to put down until the end.
