"Brilliantly written... I couldn't put it down." What if you could predict the apocalypse—but no one would listen? Four years ago, Dr. Edie Becker's earthquake warning threw Los Angeles into panic. They called her crazy. Stripped her credentials. Drove her into exile. Now she's haunted by visions far worse than before—dreams of hell itself cracking through the earth's crust. And this time, they're not just nightmares. When Edie predicts another devastating quake, only one person responds: her wealthy sister Lola, who wagers $65,000 it won't happen. Trapped in her sister's mansion as zero hour approaches, Edie makes a terrifying discovery. The crack in the earth isn't just a fault line—it's a door. And whatever's behind it has been waiting centuries to break through. But how do you save a city that destroyed you? From the sun-scorched streets of Los Angeles to the darkest corners of sisterly betrayal, "The Shakes" delivers a supernatural psychological thriller that will leave you questioning the line between prophecy and madness. Perfect for fans of Paul Tremblay's "The Cabin at the End of the World" and Riley Sager's "Home Before Dark," this story proves that sometimes the worst nightmare is being right all along. Brace yourself. The ground isn't the only thing about to break.
