When four teenagers, Leah, Vincent, Ava, and Noah, are stranded in a remote cabin during a snowstorm with Camille, an isolated writer, they believe they have found shelter. Instead, they have walked into something sinister. Camille is helpful at first; she offers them food and safety, but things begin to get strange quickly. The windows and doors won't open, the snow keeps falling even though weather forecasts say it will be clear, and Camille knows their darkest secrets, which they have never told anyone else. As the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur, they discover a terrifying truth: Camille's obsession with a mysterious typewriter might hold the key to their survival.
Nichole Heydenburg's psychological thriller, These Deadly Words, explores the terrifying nexus of power and obsession, reality and fiction, and what it means to be real. A spine-tingling story that will leave readers questioning reality, identity, and the power of storytelling until the very end. In a cabin where words have power and the wrong story could kill you, Heydenburg has written something unforgettable. The author excels in the way she masterfully keeps the tension taut and writes fully realized characters with secrets, flaws, and vulnerabilities. Camille, as a villain, is the star of the show. She is a deeply troubled, lonely woman; her obsession with her writing and every artist's desire to completely shape their creation drags her into derangement. For fans of I Will Find You and The Cabin at the End of the World, Nichole Heydenburg's These Deadly Words is a masterwork of modern horror. Don't miss it.
