Point Fury: A Novel

Trapped in a house from which there is no escape -- with a madman who will stop at nothing to destroy him... Rock guitarist Chris Nielson is on permanent vacation after his professional and personal lives both crash and burn. So when his father's wealthy friend offers him a house-sitting job at his palatial Maryland beach house, it's just what Chris needs to get his head straight and dry out. Or so he thinks. For his new employer is not what he seems -- he's something much worse. Slowly, Chris is drawn into a life-or-death game devised by a twisted madman, and he realizes that his chance for a new beginning may be the end of him.... Hailed by Stephen King as "a writer who'll bear watching," John Maxwell delivers a heart-stopping debut novel that will keep readers up late into the night...with all the lights on.
