He lurks around the house, stalks her at school, but it isn't until Chloe finally confronts him that she finds out just what kind of monster he is.

What Chloe really wants is revenge. Fueled by a rage that's been simmering since her mother's death, she discovers that Andrew is not the only one capable of violence.
