I Know Where Your Sleep

There must be nothing more frightening than being stalked by an unknown person. In I Know Where You Sleep by Alan Orloff, restaurant hostess Jessica Smith has been receiving phone calls with no one speaking when she answers. But things begin to escalate and she decides she needs help.  She hires the investigative services of PI Anderson West.

The caseload at Anderson's agency has been light and he has the time to take Jessica's case - pro bono at the insistence of his erratic sister Carrie, an unofficial employee of his agency. Carrie takes the investigation in her own direction and soon discovers Jessica might not be telling the entire story. 

For Anderson there are plenty of suspects: Jessica's current boyfriend Matt; her ex-boyfriend Patrick, her slimy boss Oscar and even the reverend at whose church she belongs Reverend Thompson. All need looking into the standard way - through interviews. Carrie takes a more blunt force approach and increases Jessica's unease.

When the stalked leaves a phone message saying he knows where she works and he knows where she lives, Jessica's anxiety ratchets up. As for Anderson, his investigation is leading him to dead ends and that annoys him.

Through flashbacks we learn what Jessica is hiding and understand why someone is stalking her, but not who it is. 

A tense, taut mystery in a situation that would terrorize most people. Anderson is in a race against time to discover who the stalked is.
