The Komorebi World

The Dollhouse A dark psychological thriller for fans of Pretty Girls, Still Missing, and The Chain.

Alfred collects Dolls. Not the kind found in stores—the kind that breathe. The kind that scream.

Angel and Bud never had a perfect home. Their father is in prison, and their mother barely notices them. Survival has always been up to them, but nothing could have prepared them for what Alfred has planned.

Now they are Dolls, captives inside a small blue house that looks just like every other home on the street. Each day brings a new game, a new test, a new chance to fail. Recreating old family photos is only the beginning. Alfred's humor is cruel, and his punishments are deadly.

One second too late and someone dies. One wrong move and Alfred makes sure they never move again.

Angel is terrified, but if she wants to survive—and save the new child Alfred has chosen—she must outthink a killer before time runs out.

Peter Baden gave up his career to search for his missing daughter. He does not know she is trapped in the Dollhouse. He does not know a murderer is playing with her life. And he does not know that time is running out for another child Alfred is about to take.

A dark, unflinching psychological thriller where horror hides behind a perfect suburban façade and survival depends on courage, cunning, and the smallest moments of luck.
