From #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden comes The Inmate, a pulse-pounding standalone psychological thriller packed with shocking twists, buried secrets, and nonstop suspense. Blending psychological tension, murder mystery, and emotional drama, this addictive novel will keep you questioning every character until its jaw-dropping conclusion.

Brooke Sullivan is starting over with a new job as a nurse practitioner at a maximum-security prison. On her first day, she's given three simple rules:

• Treat every inmate with respect.
• Never reveal personal information.
• Never become too friendly with the prisoners.

The problem?

Brooke has already broken every one of them.

Years earlier, Shane Nelson wasn't Prisoner #41852—he was Brooke's high school sweetheart. Handsome, popular, and seemingly destined for a perfect future, Shane is now serving a life sentence for a series of brutal murders.

It was Brooke's testimony that put him behind bars.

Now they're face to face again.

As long-buried memories resurface and shocking new revelations come to light, Brooke begins to question everything she thought she knew about the past. But in a place built on lies, manipulation, and deadly secrets, trusting the wrong person could cost her everything.

Fast-paced, emotionally gripping, and filled with Freida McFadden's signature twists, The Inmate is a psychological thriller that delivers relentless suspense from beginning to end.
