Lisa Unger | CLOSE YOUR EYES AND COUNT TO TEN

Squid Game meets Survivor in this riveting thriller about a high-stakes game of extreme hide-and-seek and one woman’s fight to survive, from the bestselling queen of suspense, Lisa Unger

The game has started. Who will make it to the count of 10?

Charismatic daredevil and extreme adventurer Maverick Dillan invites you to the ultimate game of hide-and-seek. But as the players gather on Falcao Island, the game quickly spirals into a deadly test of survival. A monstrous storm rages as a malevolent force stalks the contestants, turning the game into something far more sinister than the social media stunt it was intended to be.

Enter Adele, a single mother with a fierce determination to protect her children at all costs. When she begins the game, she unwittingly enters a twisted web of deception and intrigue. Can she maneuver through the treacherous storm and the relentless game and get home to her family?

From the abandoned Enchantments hotel to the chilling depths of the island's secrets, the contestants must band together to outwit their unseen enemy. In a ruthless battle for survival where the stakes are higher than ever, the blurry line between the virtual and the real proves that the only person we can trust is ourselves.
