Chyna Shepherd goes to her friend Laura's parents house for a break, but on the first night there's an intruder who kills the whole family.

Not knowing if her friend is alive or dead, she follows them out of the house, and also learns about a 16 year old captive in the killers home. Can she help the captive but also survive herself?


I enjoyed Intensity. It was a good read, although I felt it could have been a little shorter. There is a lot of detail, however, so you feel you really get to know the characters.

This story is told over a very short time span; only a few days. A lot happens in those few days though!

It is not just told from Chyna's point of view, it is also told from the killers view, which I like. This way means you can really tell what each of the characters are thinking and feeling, even if those things are from the killers mind!

I felt myself getting really involved with what Chyna was going through. I found it so easy to read and I just wanted to know what was going to happen next. Very hard to put down!
