Samantha was so happy because it was the day before the first day of school. But when she has a very frightening dream about her father being stabbed to death she yells for her parents. They come in and reassure that it was just a nightmare, nightmares can’t hurt you. But the next morning her dad is found lying down on the floor and almost dead from being stabbed. He goes to the hospital for testing and recovering. Then two nights after that she has a dream about that guy coming at her with a knife. But when she wakes up and her father is lying on the couch asleep with the news on in the background there is the man on the news. She freaks out and doesn’t even go to school because she is afraid while she is gone her mother will be killed. She misses the first month of school. Her best friend Caitlyn brings her the homework she had missed, and then Samantha has a dream about Caitlyn! She stays up all night thinking of how to protect her mom and Caitlyn. Then her mom goes to work and she swears she is getting followed and watched, and Samantha does go to school. Then that night [which is a Friday] Caitlyn comes over. Her mom starts getting weird calls from some man. Saying that Caitlyn, Samantha, her dad, and herself will get killed or seriously injured. Over Caitlyn’s cell phone she calls the police who don’t believe her at all. She convinces them to just track the call or arrive at Samantha’s house. When they do start tracking the call the man said he had been talking for to long and he has to go. Since they couldn’t track the call they send to large police officers to stay in the house and guard it. Samantha gets a call on her cell phone from the man. He says that if the guards don’t leave he will take her and Caitlyn away from their parents. Samantha tells the guards that and they decide to “Leave”. [Which they don’t] Even though she got the guards out of sight of the man he comes in and tries to take Caitlyn and Samantha away. The guards catch try to catch the man but he gets away with the girls. When he leaves the guard tracks them down and sees that the man who was doing it all along was the uncle of Samantha.

you mean you plan to write a book using that as your plot? don't bother...give your time a better use...it's predictable and boring

But if you want this to be a good book you should really work on the rest.

Would never answer these questions at this point because I notice that when you kids get constructive criticism of your work and good suggestions, you throw temper tantrums. Perhaps that is not YOUR style, but it seems to be the style of the vast majority of you out there. Apparently you kids want only your peers to tell you how wonderful you are and how you have a great story going, and how the world has been waiting for a magnificent writer such as yourself. Can't tell you how many times I have given good constructive suggestions and how many of you have come back and thrown a total fit, telling me I am wrong, stupid, and don't know what I am talking about, in addition to trying to thwart your dreams. One today (some little poster named Chips) told me that people (editors, I assume) put down JK Rowling and pointed out how famous Rowling is now. This person could not even spell correctly and her writing was very inferior and needed a lot of work, but apparently everyone (her mommy and daddy, and her peers) lauds her all the time and she became EXTREMELY angry when someone (me) did not. Sorry, no more solid (REAL) critiques. All most of you people seem to want is EGO STROKING! If you are looking for that from REAL writers and editors, you won't get it! In addition, some do not realize that when you put your work on the Internet, you open it up to EVERYONE'S opinion, NOT just those who will automatically agree with you and tell you you are wonderful beyond words.

All stories in books have secondary plots that run alongside. Yours does not. Add another subplot and refine the first, as the other answerers said.
Or take up knitting.

it reminds me of "when a stranger calls". change the part about the phone calls and everything and it might look original.... but it is kind of cheesy! :). thheres already so many horror movies out , and i can relate each event in your book to one of the movies. it reminds me of "the grudge" also.

it's good, but the idea is not so unique. make it stand out through the small thing,dialogs,focus on the psychology of the characters,and especially on the stalker's
