The Demon Doll (Paperback)

Paperback. Antonio Russo has always had a talent for making the wrong choice.He lies. He gets jealous. He follows his friends into trouble. And when a grotesque wooden doll enters his life, the consequences begin to spread beyond anything he can understand.People disappear from memory. The past rearranges itself. A black cat appears where it should not. As Antonio's grandfather is dying, his friendships begin to fracture under the weight of secrets, guilt, desire, and things none of them are prepared to understand.But Antonio's story is only the trunk.The Demon Doll: A Novel in Stories unfolds through a collection of interconnected tales-branches extending outward across different characters, places, and moments in time before curving unexpectedly back toward the central narrative. Stories that at first appear independent gradually reveal their connections, transforming earlier events and raising new questions about memory, consequence, faith, family, and the choices that bind one life to another.Blending literary fiction, horror, mystery, and the supernatural, The Demon Doll is a novel about the strange ways our actions continue beyond us-and about what happens when the past refuses to remain buried. A teenager, a wooden doll, and a web of interconnected stories in which memories shift and the supernatural refuses to remain buried. The Demon Doll blends literary fiction, horror, and the uncanny through a novel in stories. This item is printed on demand.
