Jason Rekulak – författare

Den enorma Booktok-favoriten - nu på svenska! Boken har exklusiva tryckta snittytor.

Mallory Quinn har precis kommit ut från rehab när hon får jobb som barnflicka åt paret Ted och Caroline Maxwells femåriga son Teddy. Och Mallory älskar det omedelbart. Hon har sitt eget krypin, kan ta löprundor i det vackra bostadsområdet om kvällarna och har stabiliteten hon behöver. Framför allt älskar hon Teddy - den rara, blyga lilla pojken som aldrig går någonstans utan ritblock och pennor. Så fort han får chansen sitter han och ritar träd, kaniner och ballonger. Men en dag ritar han något annat: en man i skogen, som släpar en kvinnas livlösa kropp.

Det dröjer inte länge innan Teddys teckningar blir ännu mer skrämmande och hans streckgubbar utvecklas snabbt till verklighetstrogna skisser som ligger långt över en femårings förmåga. Mallory börjar undra om det är glimtar av ett gammalt olöst mordfall. Kan offret hemsöka Teddy? Mallory måste lösa gåtan och rädda Teddy innan det är för sent.

Hidden pictures är en skrämmande och pulshöjande thriller som är perfekt till höstens "spooky season"! Det är en av de absolut mest älskade böckerna på Booktok och den har utsetts till årets bästa bok av åtskilliga tidningar samt i Goodreads Choice Awards.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFrom the author of the runaway hit, Hidden Pictures, comes a stunning new work of domestic suspense“Part conspiracy thriller, part family drama, The Last One at the Wedding kept my heart racing and my mind reeling.” ―Riley Sager"The ultimate middle-class Dad battles the 1% for his daughter's soul in the best thriller I've read all year." ―Grady HendrixFrank Szatowski is shocked when his daughter, Maggie, calls him for the first time in three years. He was convinced that their estrangement would become permanent. He’s even more surprised when she invites him to her upcoming wedding in New Hampshire. Frank is ecstatic, and determined to finally make things right.He arrives to find that the wedding is at a private estate—very secluded, very luxurious, very much out of his league. It seems that Maggie failed to mention that she’s marrying Aidan Gardner, the son of a famous tech billionaire. Feeling desperately out of place, Frank focuses on reconnecting with Maggie and getting to know her new family. But it’s difficult: Aidan is withdrawn and evasive; Maggie doesn’t seem to have time for him; and he finds that the locals are disturbingly hostile to the Gardners. Frank needs to know more about this family his daughter is marrying into, but if he pushes too hard, he could lose Maggie forever.An edge-of-your-seat thriller that delves deep into the heart of one family, The Last One at the Wedding is a work of brilliant suspense from a true modern master.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER · OPTIONED FOR NETFLIX BY A PRODUCER OF THE BATMANGOODREADS CHOICE AWARD WINNER“I loved it." —Stephen KingFrom Edgar Award-finalist Jason Rekulak comes a wildly inventive spin on the supernatural thriller, for fans of Stranger Things and Riley Sager, about a woman working as a nanny for a young boy with strange and disturbing secrets.Mallory Quinn is fresh out of rehab when she takes a job as a babysitter for Ted and Caroline Maxwell. She is to look after their five-year-old son, Teddy.Mallory immediately loves it. She has her own living space, goes out for nightly runs, and has the stability she craves. And she sincerely bonds with Teddy, a sweet, shy boy who is never without his sketchbook and pencil. His drawings are the usual fare: trees, rabbits, balloons. But one day, he draws something different: a man in a forest, dragging a woman’s lifeless body.Then, Teddy’s artwork becomes increasingly sinister, and his stick figures quickly evolve into lifelike sketches well beyond the ability of any five-year-old. Mallory begins to wonder if these are glimpses of a long-unsolved murder, perhaps relayed by a supernatural force.Knowing just how crazy it all sounds, Mallory nevertheless sets out to decipher the images and save Teddy before it’s too late.

"Garfield meets Rosemary's Baby" -Publisher's Weekly From the New York Times bestselling author of Hidden Pictures and The Last One at the Wedding comes a new supernatural thriller about a young woman pet-sitting a cat with a mysterious secret, featuring more than eighty pages of illustrations.Meet Penny Padgett, a twenty-seven-year-old cartoonist in Philadelphia who agrees to pet-sit a very peculiar cat named Godfrey in her home. At first, he's a warm and affectionate companion who follows Penny all around the house and insists on sleeping by her side every night. But soon strange things are happening: Penny is haunted by disturbing and violent nightmares. There's a terrible insect infestation in her basement. Her cute cartoon illustrations turn dark and surreal, as if influenced by some invisible hand. And her health starts failing, as if her mind and body are under attack by a sinister, malevolent force.Penny may be a cat person, but she's starting to think Godfrey is no ordinary cat. . . .Fully illustrated with more than eighty pages of original artwork, Jason Rekulak's new novel is intensely plotted, wonderfully frightening, and wildly clever. He more than lives up to his reputation as having "a freakishly fertile imagination" (The New York Times).
