They say he is always there. They say he is always watching. A tall guy in a suit and tie, with no face, and arms like tentacles.
Some say he is an online myth; others will go very far to prove he is real, so far that they might even kill for him.
Fanoe Island is busy with the mayoral election coming up, when suddenly, the sitting mayor is found killed. Rumors tell that a faceless man dressed in a suit and tie did it.
In Emma Frost's house that she inherited from her grandmother, a box of letters is found that tells a story from a long time ago. A terrifying story revealing a painful chapter in the life of her own family half a century ago.

This is my first time reading the author.
I enjoyed Slenderman. I chose to read it because I'm familiar with the legend of the character and thought it would make an interesting read.
I wouldn't say this is the best book I've ever read but it's not the worst. I found it a quick, easy read and not too taxing.
Slenderman has very short chapters which were easy to read.
The characters are okay, they were a bit one-dimensional at times.
Slenderman is really about a series of murders linked to a mysterious Slender Man and Emma Frost trying to stop her life from falling apart. I liked the two contrasting storylines.
I was disappointed when Slenderman's identity is revealed. I was hoping for something a little more supernatural.
Also, the author makes it obvious who is terrorising Emma and trying to destroy her life. This could have better executed and the culprit not so obvious.
