NEW YORK TIMES 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.

Den enorma Booktok-favoriten - nu på svenska! 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. Tips: Läs den inte sent på natten ...
