Nightwatching by Tracy Sierra is the kind of book that’ll have you triple-checking your locks and questioning every creak in the house. In this episode, we take you through the chilling, anxiety-ridden pages of this psychological thriller, where one mother’s fight to protect her children turns into an unrelenting nightmare.

We’ll break down the paranoia, the isolation, and the gut-wrenching choices that define this story. Is it all in her head, or is the danger terrifyingly real? Plus, we rate the book on our signature shot scale—was it a slow burn worth the payoff, or did it leave us reaching for something stronger?

And of course, we’ve paired this read with a cocktail that’s as intense as the story itself. So grab a drink, keep the lights on, and tune in for the breakdown of Nightwatching!

It’s a whole vibe—mix our signature cocktail The Corner and explore the prompt questions that kept us talking.
