The Gift


A THRILLER SHORT STORY!

A gripping Christmas-themed short story from #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden, author of The Housemaid!

What would you sacrifice for the perfect gift?

Despite working two jobs, she can't even afford a present for her husband on their first Christmas together. It was supposed to be a magical holiday, but instead it's a reminder of how much she can't provide.

Then a mysterious pawn shop owner offers Stella an intriguing trade. She wants more than anything to buy her husband the perfect gift. But there's a catch, and it may come at a terrible price...

Inspired by O. Henry's beloved classic The Gift of the Magi, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden delivers a chilling holiday short story where love, desperation, and deadly consequences collide.
