THE SITTER by R. L. StineDescription: Ellie Saks desperately wants to escape the city, tired of dead-end jobs, her mother's disapproval, her loser ex-boyfriend, and the memories of a terrible incident that occurred years ago. So she immediately agrees to her best friend's suggestion that she spend the summer in the Hamptons -- complete with glitzy parties, cool cocktails, and hot dates. To be able to afford all this fun, Ellie takes a job as a nanny.
It isn't long before Ellie meets four-year-old Brandon, who hasn't spoken for months. Ellie recognizes that he is a troubled boy who is haunted by something too horrible to even talk about. She then begins to receive threatening messages and disturbing gifts. But it's not until she barely escapes a harrowing experience that she realizes her life may depend on figuring out who's behind it all.
