Description:Young Cathy Doyle hasn’t yet found a job, and so the offer to cat-and-house- sit for a vacationing Encino, Califor¬ nia, couple seems like a stroke of good fortune. But when a mysterious in¬ truder pins her down in bed late at night and demands a million dollars he claims she is hiding—the situation becomes an unspeakable nightmare.
So the Gordons, whose books have sold 14 million copies in thirteen lan¬ guages, begin a story centered around many of the characters who delighted and terrorized readers in the best¬ selling Night Before the Wedding.
