About this listen

There's someone at your front door—should you let them in? Find out in a riveting new thriller from global sensation and #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Housemaid, Freida McFadden!

Who knows what the storm will blow in…

Casey's cabin in the wilderness is not built for a hurricane. Her roof shakes, the lights flicker, and the tree outside her front door sways ominously in the wind. But she's a lot more worried about the girl she discovers lurking outside her kitchen window.

She's young. She's alone. And she's covered in blood.

The girl won't explain where she came from, or loosen her grip on the knife in her right hand. And when Casey makes a disturbing discovery in the middle of the night, things take a turn for the worse.

The girl has a dark secret. One she'll kill to keep. And if Casey gets too close to the truth, she may not live to see the morning.

In this taut, deadly tale of survival and desperation, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden explores how far one girl will go to save herself.

Freida never fails to keep you guessing on how the story will play out. Love the details right until the end. The narrator for “before” was slightly annoying to listen to.. with overly distinct and dramatic pronunciation of words or phrases.. but overall it was a good book.

Ending with a twist

I wasn’t a huge fan of the “Ella Before” voice, very monotone and hard to listen at times but I really liked the backstories and character stories and was captivated to learn how they connected and developed. Overall great Frieda Listen!

Not a huge fan of narrators, but great character development and story!

Listened to it on a road trip with my hubby -also captured his attention. I love Frieda McFadden and this was no different: I enjoyed the ending. The narrator was great... Although I still did speed up to 1.2x.

I love all Freida McFadden. I whenever I know the book is almost done I get upset knowing I need to wait until she finishes the next one. This book was no different. The twists and turns kept me listening to and the narrators added to the story. Thank you for all that all of you do!

I listened to my first audio book from Frieda McFadden in August 2025 -" the housemaid is watching". ive since not been able to stop, and ive listened to 13 of her books. The intruder was my favorite so far!! they've all been way more than excellent though. 10/10... but the intruder gets 12/10. ive just purchased 3 more books from her now 👌
