{"product_id":"a-noise-downstairs","title":"A Noise Downstairs","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe internationally bestselling author of No Time for Goodbye returns with a haunting psychological thriller that blends the twists and chills of Stephen King and Edgar Allan Poe with the driving suspense of Dennis Lehane and Harlan Coben, in which a man hears sounds that quite possibly emanate from the dead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaul Davis is hearing some very strange noises in the night. He hears the clickety-click of a manual typewriter--as if someone is vigorously tapping the keys. The eerie sounds began soon after his wife, Charlotte, bought him a classic antique Underwood. But only Paul can hear the noise coming from downstairs; Charlotte doesn't hear anything unusual.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIs Paul losing his mind? Maybe. Or is something really there? Eight months ago, he stumbled upon Connecticut's infamous \"Apology Killer\"--a psychopath who forced his victims to typewrite personal apologies to him before he cut their throats--disposing of two mutilated bodies on Milford's Post Road. Most shocking of all, the killer was his colleague, someone he thought he knew. Paul's been seeing a therapist for months to recover from the nearly fatal encounter, but his nerves and short-term memory have suffered since the traumatic event.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere's only one way to learn if the noises are real or a figment of his hyper-imagination. One night, Paul rolls a sheet of paper into the machine. The next morning, when he checks the page, there is a chilling message:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"We typed our apologies like he asked but he killed us anyway.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs he desperately searches to find a rational explanation for the note and the noises, Paul slowly begins to consider the unthinkable: The message is authentic, and the women butchered by his colleague are reaching out to him from beyond the grave.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Doubleday Canada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53067910218094,"sku":"9780385698382","price":19.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0884\/7448\/5102\/files\/9780385687188.jpg?v=1765480177","url":"https:\/\/wildwoodbookstore.ca\/products\/a-noise-downstairs","provider":"Wildwood Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
