The Watchers by Am Shine

PREORDER A.M. SHINE'S TERRIFYING NEW HORROR NOVEL GRACE NOW! The spine-chilling, bestselling debut horror novel from A.M. Shine. Now adapted into a major motion picture produced by M. Night Shyamalan. You can't see them. But they can see you. This forest isn't charted on any map of Ireland. Every car breaks down at its treeline, and Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced to enter the dark and desolate woods. She discovers a woman shouting, urging her to run. Mina reaches a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams. The nightmare is only just beginning. Mina finds herself trapped in a room with a wall of glass and an electric light that comes on at nightfall. Terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time, for night is when strange and sinister creatures emerge to observe their captive humans. They are watching your every move... Afraid and trapped among strangers, Mina is desperate for answers. Who are the Watchers, and why are they keeping humans imprisoned, so keen to watch their every move?
